In areas where access to safe water, appropriate wastewater management, and adequate sewage systems are not feasible, CDC's Safe Water System (SWS) empowers people to improve and protect the quality of their drinking water. The SWS allows individuals to treat and store water in their homes using simple and inexpensive technologies. It consists of four steps:
- Point-of-use treatment of contaminated water
- Safe water storage
- Improved hygiene
- Behavior change techniques
