The Land Trust Accreditation Commission, an independent program of the Land Trust Alliance, conducts an extensive review of each applicant’s policies and programs. Natural Lands has applied for accreditation renewal, and a public comment period is now open.
The Commission invites public input and accepts signed, written comments on pending applications. Comments must relate to how Natural Lands complies with national quality standards. These standards address the ethical and technical operation of a land trust. For the full list of standards see http://www.landtrustaccreditation.org/help-and-resources/indicator-practices.
