ACEP-ALE Certification Peer-to-Peer Training - West

Are you looking for ways to strengthen your land trusts' participation in the Agricultural Conservation Easement Program Agricultural Land Easements (ACEP-ALE) program? To support partners' ability to participate in the ACEP-ALE program, The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service created certified entity status. Under ACEP-ALE, certified entities are trusted partners who have a streamlined path to complete projects which means conserving more critical working lands across the country.

Join national ACEP-ALE program manager, Matt Oliver, for an overview of ACEP-ALE entity certification, what it is, how partners can apply and how to best leverage this tool to conserve more working lands. Matt will be joined by certified Western land trust partners who will share their first-hand insights on this important tool and answer your questions.

This webinar is made possible by the Alliance and NRCS partnership to provide resources to the land trust community about NRCS-administered programs. The webinar is also part of our Federal Funding Series to educate land trusts on federal funding opportunities.
