Our Vision
A thriving landscape of healthy lands and waters supporting wildlife, fish, and plants, embraced by all who live, work, and recreate in the Midwest.
Our Goals
By 2030, our goals are to achieve:
- A 10% increase in the health and connectedness of Midwest lands and waters, to include conservation of intact landscapes as well as restoration and enhancement of degraded landscapes.
- Sustainable populations of wildlife, fish, and plant species.
- An increase in the relevance of nature and the practice of pro-conservation and outdoor recreation behaviors of those who live, work, and recreate in the Midwest.
