Clayton County Water Authority wins diversity award

Clayton County Water Authority recently earned the Champion of Diversity award from the Georgia Section of the American Water Works during the Georgia Association of Water Professionals (GAWP) annual conference in July, according to a press release.

This award recognizes ‘an individual, group, or organization that has created, promoted and maintained diversity by establishing an environment that recognizes, encourages, and effectively utilizes each individual’s talents.’ GAWWA recognizes the role of diversity as being essential to the growth, structure, and continued success of any organization. Diversity should be an inherent trait of any organization and is manifest in the mosaic of people who bring a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, values, and beliefs as assets to a group or organization in which they interact.
