Join us for our
Refuge Friends Quarterly Calls!
This quarter we will be providing our legislative update and a rollout of the Refuges Matter Campaign
Next Call: Wednesday, December 21st, 2 pm ET
It’s time for your quarterly legislative update, a chance to find out what is going on in Washington D.C. and how it can affect your refuge and the Refuge System.
Join Libby Marking, NWRA Director of Government Affairs & Public Policy, to learn what has happened in the past few months and what is on the horizon.
But wait, there’s more!
Did you know that your National Wildlife Refuge system has lost over 20% of its staffing over the last decade?
What are the funding impacts on a refuge when a staff member leaves?
Mark Musaus, NWRA Regional Representative, will discuss how the underfunding of the Refuge System has led to under-staffing and the struggle for the Refuge System to address its mission.
CORFA and NWRA wants to work with you to initiate a process of educating ourselves, local communities, and elected representatives to ensure that our refuges receive the support the refuges need to conserve wildlife for generations to come.
This will be an opportunity to learn about how you and your Refuge Friends group can help to make much-needed funding a reality and the resources that will be available to help you with this important mission.
