Our story as an organization, plus descriptions of our staff, board, and geographical offices

"Keeping the Northwest Wild"

Proven and successful For 20 years, we've protected and connected hundreds of thousands of acres in Washington and BC   Smart and strategic We work with local communities, build science-based solutions, and lead innovative partnerships

Conservation Northwest connects and protects old growth and other wild areas from the Washington Coast to the BC Rockies, to benefit people and wildlife. Since 1989 we have protected hundreds of thousands of acres of wildlife habitat: from the big tree forests south of Mount Rainier to forest critical to lynx in the Loomis east of North Cascades National Park.

Today we are ensuring the region is wild enough for wolves, grizzly bears, and mountain caribou; working with local communities on forest restoration, sustainable timber jobs, and wilderness protection; and creating safe passage for wildlife across Interstate 90, to name a few.
