January 6, 2023 By Coye Gerald
WASHINGTON, D.C. (January 5, 2023) – The Rural Community Assistance Partnership (RCAP) has been selected to lead an initiative to engage emerging leaders in the water industry at both the staff and governing board/council level to ensure that the sustainability of rural water and wastewater systems is maintained in the coming decades, and that the next generation’s leaders across rural America have the skills necessary to be successful. Although rural leaders of all walks of life are welcome, RCAP will work to recruit and empower leaders who are often underrepresented in the rural water sector including women and BIPOC leaders.
