The New Jersey Council of Watershed Associations (NJCWA) was initially convened to bring the state's watershed organizations together to advocate effectively on a number of issues, as well as share information among its members. Meetings are held quarterly with presentations from peers who are successfully improving the conditions in their own watersheds and building the capacity of their own organizations. Tap into their expertise and learn strategies that you can adapt and bring into your watershed. Several committees have formed to discuss specific areas such as watershed management, fundraising, accounting, and boards. A listserv was also created to keep groups informed of upcoming events and opportunities. Below is a list of upcoming meetings.
