Issues We Care About and Actions You Can Take

The Idaho issues we work on include:

·      Educate members on mining operations in the Boise River’s headwaters

·      Monitor water quality through our Water Sentinels program

·      Create a wildlife corridor between Yellowstone and Eastern/Central Idaho

·      Encourage wildlife diversity and the protection of habitat
