Partnering for Climate-Resilient Land Protection Technical Assistance from The Nature Conservancy in New York

The Nature Conservancy is piloting a new program for land trusts across New York to receive tailored technical assistance aimed at accelerating the protection of lands vital to freshwater and coastal ecosystems, climate adaptation, and landscape connectivity. There is no cost to the land trust and no application is required to access this program.

Additional Information:
Eligibility and Cost This opportunity is currently available to land trusts operating in New York. While we are limiting eligibility in this first year, we welcome interest from other conservation organizations and may consider expanding the program in the future. Importantly, there is no requirement to submit a Climate Resilience Grant Program (CRGP) application, and there is no cost to participate—TNC is offering staff time and data resources free of charge. How to Request Assistance The deadline for submitting this expression of interest is February 13, 2026. After receiving your expression of interest, we will follow up within a week to schedule a one-on-one conversation. These conversations help us understand your context and determine how our expertise aligns with your needs. Once we have an understanding of need and how our capacity can best provide support, we will determine which interested land trusts we can work with in the March-April timeframe.
