We continue our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion series with VWEA's DE&I Committee Chair Shawn Heselton (HRSD) sitting down with VA AWWA's DE&I Committee Chair Supriya Murthy to discuss the collaboration between our two Associations and how to make actionable changes to shift the culture toward more inclusive organizations.

Tune into The Straight Flush for a direct line to the conversations shaping Virginia's water environment. Produced by the Virginia Water Environment Association, this series goes beyond the basics to explore the real-world challenges and innovations in wastewater and stormwater management. Each episode brings you voices from the field-engineers, operators, policymakers, and researchers-discussing current trends, new initiatives, and the practical solutions being implemented across the state. You'll hear personal stories about the individuals whose work sustains our infrastructure and protects our waterways, offering a grounded perspective on an essential industry. This podcast serves as an informal meeting space for professionals and anyone curious about where our water goes and how communities are working to steward it better. It’s about the people and projects behind the pipes, delivered in straightforward conversations that aim to inform and connect.
