The Southwest Region of CEFPI is comprised of the states of Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming.

Five Chapters have been established in our region: Arizona, California & Northern Nevada, Las Vegas, New Mexico, Rocky Mountain and Utah.

CEFPI-SW (an affiliate of CEFPI) is a professional association whose sole mission is improving the places where children learn. Our members are individuals, institutions and corporations who are actively involved in planning, designing, building, equipping and maintaining schools and colleges.

The association serves its members through three key strategic areas:

• Advocacy and education of the general public, including policymakers, on the efficacy of school design and student outcomes; resource for planning effective educational facilities.
• Training and professional development of our members and others through current program, workshops, seminars and conferences promoting best practices in creative school planning.
• Research and dissemination of information regarding the linkage between the educational facility, its design and student success.
• By virtue of international membership in the Council you are assigned to a region and chapter; where you reside dictates which region and chapter affiliate you will belong to.

Belonging to the Southwest region and your local chapter provides more opportunities to network with your colleagues and allows better dissemination of information pertinent to the area in which you live.
