Montana Conservation Voters Education Fund

Conservation policy program: the mcv Education Fund educates and engages montanans about Conservation policy and its impact on Montana's outdoor way of life. We work with regional, state, and local coalitions, engage the media and deploy grassroots advocacy to build a strong and effective Conservation movement. In addition to educating montanans, the mcv Education Fund along with our sister organization mcv, convenes the Conservation working group during the legislative session and leads the Conservation community's efforts to ensure elected leaders understand the issues, hear the concerns of their constituents and know the importance of voting for Conservation priorities.

Mcvef non-partisan civic engagement and ballot measure work:the mcv Education Fund coordinates with partner organizations to protect every Montanan's right to vote from legislative, administrative and legal attacks. We also help connect Voters with reliable information to exercise their right to vote and participate in our democracy.

Community organizing, outreach and list enhancement:the mcv Education Fund engages and mobilizes all montanans through grassroots advocacy, organizing and multimedia campaigns. We utilize several strategies to engage the public, including collecting signatures for petitions, conducting surveys and sending canvassers to knock doors on-the-ground. We join community events to expand our reach and hold our own events to connect with our supporters. To reach a broader audience, we utilize traditional media including earned and paid placements in state and local newspapers as well as video and social media. We strive to make our messages inclusive to all communities, including underserved communities, communities of color, rural and young people.
