Certify Your Community Wildlife Habitat™
Once your community is registered and has completed enough goals to earn enough points to qualify for certification, you will submit your information to NWF for review.
After we confirm your community has completed the minimum requirements, you officially become a National Wildlife Federation Certified Community Wildlife Habitat™ site and can start planning your certification celebration!
Each community's celebration is unique. One community organized an old-fashioned ice cream social. Another had a jazz and poetry reading night at a local park. One community planned a native plant giveaway with their celebration. Use your imagination to create a memorable celebration for your community!
