The 2026 CV Water Counts Academy recently concluded, marking another successful year of community education and regional collaboration.
Over several weeks, participants from across the Coachella Valley took part in a free comprehensive program designed to provide a clearer understanding of how water is managed in our desert region. The Academy offered an in-depth look at topics including water supply and conservation, planning for the future, reliable water service, the cost of water, and conservation in action.
Through expert presentations, practical resources, and a behind-the-scenes tour of local facilities, participants gained insight into the systems that store, treat, monitor, and deliver water across the region. The program connected big-picture planning with the day-to-day operations that keep water flowing to homes, businesses, agriculture, and recreation.
The CV Water Counts Academy continues to reflect the shared commitment of the Coachella Valley’s water agencies to transparency, education, and regional cooperation. By helping community members better understand water supply, reliability, and conservation, the Academy supports informed conversations about the valley’s water future.
