What is NYACD?
 
Incorporated in 1958, the New York Association of Conservation Districts, Inc. (NYACD) provides education and information on conservation, orderly development and wise use of the state's natural resources. The Association, a non-governmental, non-partisan, volunteer organization, represents the county Soil and Water Conservation Districts. NYACD implements programs that encourage proactive, cooperative alliances with others to promote environmental stewardship and sustainability. Consistent with our dedication to natural resource management, NYACD provides advocacy and representation of our members at the state, regional and national levels.
