National Parks Conservation Association

National Parks thrive: the organization protects Parks from external threats that negatively effect, degrade, or destroy park resources or values, and serves to protect, restore, and maintain park, natural, and cultural resources unimpaired for future generations. The organization has offices across the country to ensure that threats to resources at our Parks are detected early and solutions to these threats implemented quickly. The organization also identifies and cultivate park champions who can advance policies that protect Parks and thwart emerging threats.

Parks tell stories of all americans: National Parks protect our countrys most important history. The organization will ensure the National park service has the funding needed to improve the visitor experience and make Parks more relevant to all. By enhancing park storytelling, expanding and creating new Parks, and deeply engaging the public, we can ensure that National Parks represent, welcome, and share a fuller american story with all visitors.

National Parks are for everyone: the long-term viability and vibrancy of the National Parks depend on a broader, more diverse, committed, and engaged constituency that values the National park idea. To gain broader support for the Parks, the organization seeks to create a larger National park community that is engaged, educated, and empowered to protect and enhance our National Parks and monuments. This broader community includes non-traditional allies and a broader constituency that more closely represents the changing demographics of america.
