What is the Resource Center?

The Resource Center is the Land Trust Alliance's educational website for conservation organizations and practitioners.

It includes the Resource Library, Connection Hub, public policy advocacy, and information about your membership.

Who has access?

If you're part of an Alliance member organization, you have full member access.

Anyone can browse the Resource Center to see what's available – no log-in required. Thanks to the generous funding of our government, foundation and individual supporters, there are many resources that are available to all with no restrictions.

To access member-only resources, you will be prompted to log in. All staff, board members, other volunteers, or anyone else who is affiliated with a Alliance member or affiliate have full member access.

We strongly recommend that each person logs in using their own individual emails and passwords – we don’t recommend sharing a login.

How to create your account

To access the Resource Center and register for events, you must create a new account.

The Land Trust Alliance launched a new account management system on March 13 with new features to support our members.

All Land Trust Alliance materials are designed to provide accurate, authoritative information about the subject matter covered with the understanding that the Alliance is not engaged in rendering legal, accounting or other professional counsel. If a land trust or individual requires legal advice or other expert assistance, they should seek the services of competent professionals. Information on the Resource Center may not constitute the most up-to-date legal or other information. The Resource Center contains links to other third-party websites. Such links are only for the convenience of the reader; the Alliance does not recommend or endorse the contents of the third-party sites. Use of, and access to, the Resource Center or any of the links or resources do not create an attorney-client relationship between the reader and the Alliance, its members or its contributors.

These resources can be used as a starting point to create a policy or other document for your own land trust, but should be altered as necessary to reflect your organization’s unique circumstances.
