Our Work and Current Programs:
Under our current 2017-2022 Strategic Plan, Conservation Northwest's program work is broken
down into the following three areas: Protecting Wildlands, Connecting Habitat and Restoring
Wildlife.
Protecting Wildlands
Healthy forests, thriving grasslands and clean watersheds go hand-in-hand with healthy,
prosperous communities and abundant wildlife. Large blocks of forest and wildland are the
cornerstone of ecological resilience and provide core habitat that is essential for the long-term
survival and recovery of imperiled wildlife. Our wild public lands also offer cherished places to
hike, camp, climb, ski, wildlife watch, fish, hunt and otherwise enjoy the Pacific Northwest's rich
natural heritage.
