Communicating with our elected officials is the bedrock of our nation’s democracy. The job of our political leaders is to do the will of the people, and they can only do that when they hear from us. Private land conservation needs more people advocating for issues, legislation and ballot measures to advance conservation policies and secure resources that support land trusts. Use these resources and tools to learn the rules of advocacy and you can start engaging with your elected officials today.
