Family Forest Landowners and Managers Conference
(March 17-18, 2008)

Mission:  Provide leadership in building local collaborations for sustainable community and resource development that will improve the quality of life for residents of north-central Idaho.


The Clearwater Resource Conservation and Development (RC&D) Council, Inc. is a non-profit organization established and run by volunteer elected and civic leaders who plan and carry out projects for resource conservation and community development in Clearwater, Idaho, Latah, Lewis, and Nez Perce counties.  These volunteers represent counties, towns, the Nez Perce Tribe, conservation districts, grassroots organizations, economic development organizations, and the community at large.  The office is located in Moscow, Idaho.

The Clearwater RC&D Council is one of 375 RC&D councils in the United States (covering 80% of the country) and one of nine councils in Idaho (covering 100% of the state).  Each RC&D council represents a multi-county area approved by the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture.  The Clearwater RC&D area was authorized in 1976.  The Council is not a federal or state agency.  However, like all RC&D councils, it receives assistance from the U.S. Department of Agriculture in the form of a full-time RC&D coordinator and a part-time program assistant, who support the Council in carrying out its mission.
