Stewarding the Northwest Where It Matters Most
Since 1989, Conservation Northwest has worked to keep the Northwest wild by protecting vital landscapes, reconnecting habitats, and restoring wildlife. From the Washington Coast to the British Columbia Rockies, our science-based, collaborative work supports healthy ecosystems and the communities that depend on them.
Protecting Wildlands
Through policy, advocacy, conservation science, and strategic leadership, we conserve the Northwest’s unique and critical wild places. We work to defend the ecological integrity of public lands to the benefit of human and wildlife populations.
Connecting Habitat
By convening and collaborating with Tribes, agencies, landowners, and community partners, we are creating a connected landscape that supports vital wildlife migration, climate adaptation, and species viability amid modern threats.
Restoring Wildlife
We restore wildlife and the habitats they depend on by bringing partners together around durable, science-led solutions. Whether reintroducing endangered species, boosting food and forage resources, or supporting coexistence with carnivores, we focus on practical, collaborative restoration that rebuilds resilient Northwest ecosystems.
Our Work Across the Northwest
From the Olympic lowlands to the Cascade Crest and reaching across the Columbia plateaus and highlands into the Rockies, Conservation Northwest is doing the boots on the ground, hands in the soil work.
While much of our work happens in the field, Conservation Northwest also advances conservation through policy – shaping funding management and long-term protections that benefit wildlife and people across the region.
