Water isn’t just a natural resource in the Midwest—it’s the connector between education, health, opportunity, and community identity.
Crystal Davis of the National Parks Conservation Association explains why water is a powerful unifier across the Great Lakes and why understanding each community’s unique relationship to it is essential for building real, people-driven solutions.
Her message is clear: when we treat water as common ground rather than a political battleground, we unlock the collective power needed to protect parks, waterways, and neighborhoods across the region.
