Conservation Northwest thinks big, acts strategically, aligns with science, mobilizes grassroots support, and works collaboratively. Our work ensures that core habitat on federal and other public lands and strategically-located private lands across our geography is sufficiently protected and inter-connected into a regional network that can be self-sustaining.

We restore populations of native wildlife within this network. Our programs center on oversight of public lands, conservation practices on certain private lands, and protection/recovery of threatened species, with components of both climate impact/relevance and racial equity and justice in as many programs as possible.

We recognize that for long-term progress, conservation must go hand-in-hand with healthy, prosperous, and equitable communities. We're restoring wildlands and wildlife by working with diverse stakeholders. Through dialogue, we find common ground and collaborative solutions for challenging issues including habitat corridors, wilderness conservation, forest restoration, and endangered species recovery across our region.

Our three areas of work:
