This past year, NACD, conservation districts, state + territory associations, and conservation officials across the U.S. continued to deliver natural resource and conservation management for working lands everywhere. In this edition of the Annual Report you’ll find updates on:

  • NACD’s 2022 finances,
  • Friends of NACD District Grants Program 2023 recipients,
  • NACD’s Technical Assistance grant program,
  • Activities across NACD’s seven regions,
  • Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion efforts,
  • And more!

You’ll also read about how conservation districts are continuing to champion locally-led conservation in their communities, including:

  • Clark County Soil and Water Conservation District project funded through the Friends of NACD Grant to build partnerships and raise invasive species awareness in the community;
  • The Northern Rhode Island Conservation District’s Urban Growers Leadership Program, a bilingual training program geared towards supporting the diverse beginning farmers and growers in the surrounding urban communities;
  • A program between the Elkhart County Soil and Water Conservation District and the Indiana Department of Environmental Management to get more local dollars allocated to fund conservation;
  • And more!

On behalf of all of us at NACD, we are proud to be your national voice and look forward to the great work we will accomplish together in 2023.
