Alaska Conservation Alliance works to protect Alaska 's air, land and
water by empowering Alaskans to participate effectively in the civic
arena.
Founded in 1997, the Alaska Conservation Alliance (ACA) is a
statewide non-profit 501(c)(3) organization whose primary mission is to
protect Alaska's natural environment through voter education,
engagement, and advocacy. ACA is the only statewide coalition group
uniting Alaska's conservation community and coordinating statewide
grassroots into a powerful, cohesive force to impact public policy. We
also educate policy makers and the public about environmental issues
facing Alaska.
Advocacy
The Alaska Conservation Alliance houses Alaska's only environmental
lobby. Our Legislative staff in Juneau works to influence state policy
and hold Legislators and the Administration accountable for their
actions. ACA also works with other member organizations to persuade
local elected officials to pursue positive, pro-conservation measures. Read more...
Education
ACA educates Alaskans by participating in ballot measure campaigns,
statewide strategic issue campaigns, canvasses and get-out-the-vote
drives. Other ACA voter education activities include voter ID, list
enhancement, polling, media, newsletters and this web site. Read more...
Coordination
ACA keeps the Alaska conservation community coordinated. ACA
convenes the conservation community for strategic planning meetings in
May and November each year. Ad hoc meetings occur for emerging issues,
to revise strategies, share information, and strengthen working
relationships. Read more...
