Our Work

Clean Air & Climate

Climate change poses a host of threats to the Adirondack Park’s unique landscape and varied ecosystems.

Clean Water

Clean water is the greatest ecological and economic resource of the Adirondack Park, providing habitat, recreational opportunities and drinking water.

Forest Preserve

The Forest Preserve is the state-owned land within the Adirondack Park, protected by Article XIV of the New York State Constitution.
