TESTIMONIALS
The NHWWA Diversity Symposiums are such a positive experience for all! Diversity has become such a “buzzword” however organizations that simply look at diversity as a trend are missing out on the depth and value that a diverse organization can bring. Diverse organizations are inherently happier, more productive, and more competitive. Concord has taken this to heart throughout all divisions, we are practicing what we are preaching.
– Marco Philippon, Water Treatment Superintendent at the City of Concord
I am a close-to-retirement white male professional and have never given much thought to the topic of diversity and inclusion until I attended the 2022 and 2023 NHWWA events. The presenters opened my eyes and helped me understand the issues and obstacles faced by people whose personal life and background are not like my own. I’m so glad I attended these events!
– David Miller, Deputy Director, Water Treatment & Supply at the City of Manchester
Attending the first two NHWWA Diversity Symposia (2022 and 2023) have provided insights and were very thought provoking for me and my four students who joined me (two each year). These symposia have provided ideas which when applied have allowed me to be a more effective ally and advocate for all of my students and my co-workers. It is clear to me that the time spent has provide excellent return on investment as I have seen a strong response from the students including increased productivity on our projects and passion for our profession as each is current working with firms in NH on water projects.
