Through local action, public programs,
newsletters, and this web site WEAL provides up-to-date information on
environmental issues to the general public, teachers, county, city, and
village officials and state legislators. WEAL was formed in 1978 by
citizens alarmed by development threatening Waukesha County's natural
resources. Since then, many WEAL members have become active in local
and county government, greatly influencing the environmental well-being
of Waukesha County. There is much to be done. Pressures from
development continue to increase, straining resources, diminishing
wildlife habitat, and spoiling Waukesha's rural environment and quality
of life. Citizens should be concerned because adequate safeguards are
not yet established in many areas.
WEAL's MissionTo represent the Waukesha County community for the protection of Waukesha County's natural resources through dedicated grass-roots participation and action.

WEAL's Meetings
WEAL holds regular monthly meetings year round. Meetings are open to the public. WEAL members are especially invited to attend. Meetings are generally held on the second Thursday of the month at 7:00 pm until roughly 9:00 pm and are held at various locations around the county. Meeting locations, times, and dates are subject to change so be sure to check our calendar and e-mail us here to verify that a specific meeting will take place as scheduled. WEAL's annual meeting is held in November where a Board of Directors election, refreshments, and a guest speaker are normally part of the agenda. The annual meeting is open to the public but only members may vote in the election.
