The Guide was created through collective knowledge and experiences from the Community Water Center (CWC) staff, community partners, and water justice allies. A special recognition goes to Laurel Firestone and Susana De Anda (CWC’s Co-Founders), for beginning the journey to make this information accessible.

We dedicate the Guide to those, too numerous to list here, who have inspired and worked with us along the way. And we thank everyone, including CWC staff, community partners, ally organizations, and the UC Davis Water Justice Clinic, who helped ensure the accuracy and usefulness of this resource by providing edits, information, and expertise.
