Thank you for visiting the Land Trust Accreditation Commission's new website.
Independent accreditation provides the assurance of quality and permanence of land conservation the public is looking for and publicly recognizes a land trust’s ability to protect important natural places and working lands forever.
Preparing for accreditation and the application process also affords land trusts the opportunity to review and implement policies that will help streamline their operations and lead to more effective land conservation.
