“The Land Trust Alliance and New York State Conservation Partnership Program are essential partners in our work. We regularly rely on the Alliance for guidance, advice, and networking. Grant funding through the Conservation Partnership Program provides the assistance we need to have a more direct positive impact on communities in the Otsego Region and helps us "aim higher" in all that we do.”

“Cheers to the New York State Conservation Partnership Program. The many grants that we have received over the years have empowered us to expand our land conservation reach to a far broader community of Long Islanders. The activities tied to this grant alone have made a world of difference to both our local community and residents across Long Island and New York City.”

“Mianus River Gorge and fellow land trusts are fortunate to have the opportunity to apply for New York State Conservation Partnership Program grants and accomplish projects that strengthen land conservation efforts across New York State. The Alliance’s role in supporting capacity-building through grants, workshops, conferences, webinars, etc., is invaluable. Thank you!”

“Genesee Land Trust greatly appreciates the NYS Conservation Partnership Program and support from the Department of Environmental Conservation. As a mid-sized land trust we continue to rely on the capacity building support of the grants, and more importantly on the strong commitment to building strong organizations to accomplish local conservation. Without the opportunity to work with the Land Trust Alliance in their educational workshops, leadership training and networking/cross training opportunities Genesee Land Trust and other land trusts across the state would not be as effective as leaders in conserving critical habitats and working farms. The Conservation Partnership Program allows and encourages growth, reflection and expansion based on critical strategic planning and resource building.”
