WHAT WE DO
The Michigan Association of Conservation Districts (MACD) is a not-for-profit membership organization that serves Michigan’s 75 Conservation Districts. Our mission is to strengthen Conservation Districts through leadership, information, and representation at the state level. We do this by providing outreach and advocacy, educational programming, and business services to help Conservation Districts thrive.
Michigan Conservation Districts are unique local units of government that are the local providers of natural resource management services, utilizing state, federal, and private sector resources to solve today’s conservation challenges.

ABOUT NACD
The National Association of Conservation Districts (NACD) is the 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that represents America’s 3,000 conservation districts and the 17,000 individuals who serve on their governing boards. Conservation districts are local units of government established under state law to carry out natural resource management programs at the local level. Districts work with millions of cooperating landowners and operators to help them manage and protect land and water resources on private and public lands in the United States.
NACD’s mission is to promote responsible management and conservation of natural resources on all lands by representing locally-led conservation districts and their associations through grassroots advocacy, education and partnerships.
