What is LADWP's objective in its volunteer programs?

LADWP's objective in its volunteer programs focuses on engaging the community in sustainability initiatives. This approach helps foster a strong connection between the utility and the community it serves, encouraging residents and participants to actively participate in projects that promote environmental stewardship and sustainable practices. By involving the community in these initiatives, LADWP not only raises awareness about sustainability but also enhances community collaboration and support for conservation efforts.

This objective aligns with broader goals of promoting environmental responsibility and ensuring that the local community takes an active role in protecting natural resources. Engaging volunteers in sustainability initiatives can lead to educational outreach, habitat restoration, and other activities that contribute positively to the environment.

In contrast, reducing the workforce or increasing water tariffs does not align with a community-focused volunteer program. Promoting competition with other utilities also deviates from the collaborative spirit that volunteer programs aim to foster.
