Upcoming Events:
Sign up for Land Trust Alliance’s Advocacy Days on May 5th-8th

The Land Trust Alliance (LTA) is hosting their in-person Land Trust Advocacy Days on May 5th-8th, 2025. Sign up here!

Join LTA and other land trust advocates in person to get conservation priorities in front of your legislators and their staff. All you have to do is register and tell LTA a bit about the legislators you want to meet. LTA will do the rest, scheduling meetings, hosting a kick-off event and advocacy training, and providing up-to-date resources so you can make your voice heard.

WALT will plan to organize district meetings in June for those who can’t make it to advocacy day in DC in May.
