Our M.O. is simple: connect the big landscapes, restore iconic wildlife and protect our natural heritage for future generations. From the Washington Coast to the British Columbia Rockies, we’re your voice for conserving wildlands and wildlife. Our Mission: We protect, connect and restore wildlands and wildlife from the Washington Coast to the British Columbia Rockies. About Us: Founded in Bellingham, Washington in 1989, we’re your voice for conserving local wildlands and wildlife. Our approximately 20 staffers and half a dozen regular contractors represent 4,000 dues-paying members in Washington, British Columbia and beyond. Our conservation community also includes more than sixteen thousand activists, supporters and online followers. Bold, innovative and effective, we’ve protected hundreds of thousands of acres of wildlands, supported the recovery of threatened species from wolves to fishers, and touched thousands of lives throughout the greater Northwest. Our successful campaigns and groundbreaking collaborations help define our effective approach to conservation. Elected leaders, government agencies, and conservationists know us for being science-based and tenacious, yet pragmatic. Our Work: We recognize that for long-term progress, conservation must go hand-in-hand with healthy, prosperous 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. Conservationists, farmers, Indigenous and First Nations peoples, hikers and climbers, hunters and anglers—we all share a love for wildness, wild animals and careful stewardship of the natural legacy we leave for generations to come. We know that by working together, we’re building a stronger, wilder future in the Pacific Northwest!
