CONSERVATION TRUST FOR NORTH CAROLINA

Mission

CTNC CONSERVES LAND IN WAYS THAT INSPIRE AND ENABLE PEOPLE TO BUILD RESILIENT, JUST COMMUNITIES. WE CARRY OUT OUR MISSION IN COLLABORATION WITH OTHER CONSERVATION ORGANIZATIONS AND THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. OUR GOAL IS TO LESSEN THE IMPACTS OF A CHANGING CLIMATE AND ENSURE CONSERVATION BENEFITS EVERYONE BY BEING MORE INCLUSIVE AND EQUITABLE. CTNC'S MISSION GROWS OUT OF OUR EXPERTISE IN LAND CONSERVATION, OUR SKILL IN BRINGING NEW PEOPLE TO CONSERVATION, AND OUR EXPANDING NETWORK OF PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS AND COMMUNITIES. BROUGHT TOGETHER, THESE CAPABILITIES DIRECT US NOW TO CONSERVE LAND IN WAYS THAT INSPIRE AND ENABLE PEOPLE TO BUILD RESILIENT, JUST COMMUNITIES. THE COMPLEX CHALLENGES FACING CONSERVATION IN NORTH CAROLINA REQUIRE CHANGES TO THE WAYS WE HAVE TRADITIONALLY WORKED. CARING FOR AND PROTECTING THE NATURAL HERITAGE OF OUR STATE REMAINS A CORE FUNCTION OF CTNC. WE WILL CONTINUE AND BUILD ON OUR LAND PROTECTION EFFORTS FOR WILDLIFE, SCENIC VISTAS, AND ECOLOGICAL HEALTH.
