This is Who We Are
Using science, the law, and grassroots activism, Wilderness Workshop (WW) works to protect the public lands of the western slope of Colorado. Our geography includes the White River National Forest and nearby BLM lands. We both defend against threats to the ecology of and work proactively to increase protections for this amazing landscape.
Founded in 1967, the Wilderness Workshop has earned a national reputation for passionate, strategic advocacy, effective grassroots activism, and scientific authority.
WW is the only nonprofit organization that’s devoted to protecting these particular public lands on a full-time basis. No other local group has the mission, capacity expertise, and standing to participate effectively and consistently in the arcane bureaucratic processes that decide the fate of these lands; no state or national organization devotes as much time to our particular area.
We don’t represent any user group; rather, we provide a voice for nature on our public lands. We’re a community of people who enjoy and cherish wild places, and believe that wildlands and wildlife should be protected for their own sake (and for ours).
Although focused on the White River National Forest region, our work is part of a visionary movement to reconnect wildlife habitats and “rewild” landscapes on a continental scale. Thus we frequently partner with other local, state, regional and national groups on projects.
We now seek an experienced, committed, dynamic Conservation Director to join our highly talented team.
Here is How the Coservation Director Makes a Difference
In fulfillment of WW’s mission, the Conservation Director develops, leads and implements WW’s conservation program in partnership with the Executive Director and other program staff. The Conservation Director develops and implments WW’s forest, restoration, aquatic, responsible recreation, and wilderness programs. These programs evolve over time or change depending on the current set of threats to our public lands, and the Conservation Director plays a lead role in identifying new opportunities for program impact.
The Conservation Director collaborates with other staff to choose the specific conservation goals and projects undertaken by WW. The Conservation Director is also responsible for ensuring policy consistency in WW’s Community Programs including our Hike series, Restoration Program, Naturalists Nights and Wilderness Monitoring programs. Lastly, the Conservation Director develops strong relationships with County Commissioners, colleagues at partner organizations, grassroots activists, and staff at the U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Congressional offices.
