We also acknowledge the potential for the development of a powerful working relationship with Conservation Legacy through its CEO Elwood York. This dynamic entity which is staffed by over 135 full time employees and 250 seasonal ones, has a national mission to: engage future leaders to protect, restore, and enhance the nation’s lands through community based service.

Golden opportunities have been made available under the Biden Administration which has prioritized a focus on climate change, social and environmental justice and on restoring healthy lands, air and water. Environmental Stewardship has always been a top priority for our Ministry.
