National Affiliate
National Wildlife Federation
In late 2009, PennFuture was selected as one of 47 state affiliates of the National Wildlife Federation (NWF). State affiliates are grouped into nine regions, and PennFuture is within the
Chesapeake Mid-Atlantic region, joining forces with affiliates from Delaware, Maryland, Washington, D.C., Virginia, West Virginia, and North Carolina.
Strategic Partner
Conservation Voters of Pennsylvania
In 2017, PennFuture and Conservation Voters of Pennsylvania formed a strategic partnership to work collaboratively to win stronger environmental protections across the Commonwealth. By combining PennFuture’s policy leadership and
legal resources with Conservation Voters of PA’s advocacy and political expertise, both organizations are better positioned to secure clean air, water, and land for every Pennsylvanian.
