Our Mission

Safe drinking water is essential for protecting public health in our communities.  We literally cannot live without water, and drinking water systems have as much of an impact on public health as do doctors and nurses.  Water is after all the only utility we ingest.  Everyone needs access to safe and reliable water and wastewater service, especially our most vulnerable neighbors.

Reliable drinking water and wastewater service is also essential for the growth and sustainability of our communities.  Plentiful, good quality water available on demand allows people and businesses to locate to and remain in our communities.

It’s a big responsibility.  At Water Finance Assistance, our mission is to help you provide these essential services to your community today and into in the future.  We convey financial and managerial best practices in easily understood ways. We use innovative data analysis to help you make the improvements you need to have a well-functioning utility for years to come, with a focus on three of the sector’s most pressing issues—money, people, and water resources.  And we continue to push forward the water sector’s understanding of finance and management through our educational programs, tools, and resources.
