Who We Are

Lancaster County is a mix of urban and rural areas, representing a vibrant, diverse city and some of the region’s most important agricultural land.

The Lancaster Clean Water Partners aims to unite Lancaster’s various perspectives to achieve a shared vision of clean and clear water in Lancaster County by 2040.

The Partners is a countywide, collaborative partnership of diverse partner organizations – local leaders in business, municipal public service, higher education, conservation planning, and non-profit management – that come together with a Common Agenda. We’re led by an Executive Committee and Steering Committee, with full-time support from staff, and collaboration with many partner organizations across Lancaster. 

The Partners thrive because of the immense dedication and collaboration from our partner organizations. They are at the center of our shared mission: Rapidly accelerate and expand the ability of the partner organizations to restore and sustain healthy Lancaster County waterways.
