The West Atlanta Watershed Alliance (WAWA) is a community-based, non-profit organization that is dedicated to growing a cleaner, greener, healthier, and more sustainable West Atlanta. Our mission is to improve the quality of life within the West Atlanta Watershed by protecting, preserving and restoring our community’s natural resources. WAWA serves low wealth and communities of color in the Proctor, Utoy, and Sandy Creek Watersheds of Northwest and Southwest Atlanta--- those overburdened with environmental stressors, but often least represented at environmental decision-making tables. Established as a result of community efforts to halt discriminatory wastewater treatment practices in West Atlanta, WAWA has grown to become an impactful force in community-centered sustainable development.
