Constituency Development Program

Our Constituency Development Program provides resources to support organizations working to protect, restore and expand National Conservation Lands.   The bulk of our resources in this program go to organizations that are in our Friends Grassroots Network. However, on occasion we fund partners outside the Network for work that falls within our mission.

Resources available include, but are not limited to:

• Grants for project-specific work.
• Grants for organizational development.
• Fundraising support, including trainings and resource development.
• Consulting for planning, policy, or technical purposes.
• Trainings for board and staff development.
• Media and communications training.

Due to overwhelming demand, participation in the Constituency Development Program is by invitation only. However, if you would like to discuss an idea or opportunity to enhance your work on behalf of the National Conservation Lands, please contact your regional Foundation staff person:
