The Issues

• Critical Paths: making roadways more permeable for wildlife.

  NWF's Northeast Regional Center is working to safeguard wildlife and improve public safety on our roads in partnership with state and federal agencies, municipalities, citizens, and other conservation organizations. The Critical Paths Project is studying road crossings throughout the region and working with transportation officials to devise practical solutions to minimize habitat fragmentation, create wildlife corridors, and help wildlife survive climate change.

• Reviving America's Conservation Ethic

  Helping reconnect people with nature. 

  As part of NWF's Be Out There® program, we raise awareness about the benefits of outdoor activities for children and families.
