Program areas at ACF

Collective Conservation: as a proactive collaborative initiative, Alaska Conservation Foundation helps coordinate a network of statewide climate change adaptation efforts through the northern latitudes partnerships. These partnerships include federal, state, tribal, corporate, and other regional players that develop collaborative community-supported and indigenous-led solutions to issues brought about by our changing climate.
Movement building: to be effective, grassroots advocacy and collaborative Conservation need a strong movement, which Alaska Conservation Foundation strives to make stronger by providing organizations and youth from around the state with trainings, facilitated meetings, internships, and key funding through strategic grants.
Alaska defense fund: Alaska Conservation Foundation supports grassroots advocacy efforts across Alaska that aim to protect Alaska's public lands, waters, wildlife, and the diverse cultures they sustain through our rapid response, travel fund, and general operating grant programs.
