Successfully securing and managing federal funding for publicly owned and decentralized wastewater treatment systems is no small task, especially with shifting program priorities and uncertainty about future allocations. This no-cost webinar series from the Capacity Collaborative will guide participants through the entire funding process: where to find nationally available funding, how to craft competitive proposals, and how to stay in compliance through project completion. Designed for small wastewater systems, each session focuses on a step in the funding application and management journey, equipping participants with tools and knowledge to increase their chances of funding success.

Sessions will be held from 1–2 PM Eastern (10–11 AM Pacific) on Tues., December 2; Tues., December 16; and Thurs., December 18, 2025. The series will then resume every other Tuesday from January 13 through May 5, 2026
