The Land Trust Alliance Accreditation Program recognizes land conservation organizations that meet national quality standards for protecting important natural places forever. Western Wildlife Corridor (WWC) is pleased to announce that it is applying for accreditation in 2020. A public comment period is now open.
The Land Trust Accreditation Commission, an independent program of the Land Trust Alliance, conducts an extensive review of each applicant’s policies and programs. WWC is dedicated to conducting business and conservation activities with ethical conduct, sound finances, responsible governance and enabling lasting stewardship. We seek accreditation so that our members and supporters will know they are standing behind a strong and honest organization.
The Commission invites public input and accepts signed, written comments on pending applications. Comments must relate to how the Western Wildlife Corridor complies with national quality standards. These standards address the ethical and technical operation of a land trust. For the full list of standards see http://www.landtrustaccreditation.org/help-and-resources/indicator-practices.
