Habitat Acquisition Trust helps people understand and care for natural environments in the Capital region. We are a non-profit, regional land trust. HAT works to protect land permanently. We do this in three ways: -land acquisition through purchase or donation; -conservation covenants; -education & stewardship. HAT accepts donations of property, purchases land, and helps landowners establish permanent legal restrictions to protect natural habitats. HAT works in partnership with governments and other non-profit organizations to achieve our goals. We also work with communities, schools, and individual landowners to enhance habitat protection on private land - making everyone part of the solution!
