The Southwest Chapter supports and serves FWEA members located in Charlotte, Collier, Glades, Hendry and Lee Counties. We strive to provide activities that reflect the FWEA goals of uniting our members with the public through public awareness and outreach, providing professional development and networking opportunities, and creating alliances to promote sound science-based public policy.
