CHAPTER RELATIONS AND MEMBERSHIP: AT THE HEART OF IWLA ARE MORE THAN 200 CHAPTERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THESE CHAPTERS FORM A GRASSROOTS VOLUNTEER NETWORK OF CONSERVATIONISTS AND COMMUNITY ACTIVISTS WHO ARE FIGHTING TO PROTECT THE NATURAL RESOURCES THEY LOVE AND ENJOY. IWLA'S ANNUAL CONVENTION, HELD EVERY YEAR SINCE 1922, PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR MEMBERS FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY TO PARTICIPATE IN THE DEMOCRATIC PROCESS THAT GOVERNS IWLA AND TO WORK TOGETHER TO ADVANCE IWLA'S CONSERVATION, OUTDOOR RECREATION, AND EDUCATION MISSION. IWLA SUPPORTS CHAPTERS THROUGH MEMBER RECOGNITION AND AWARD PROGRAMS, MEMBERSHIP RENEWAL SERVICES, COMMUNICATION TOOLS, MEMBERSHIP MARKETING MATERIALS AND OTHER PUBLICATIONS, AND WORKSHOPS.
WATER: FOR 50 YEARS, IWLA'S SAVE OUR STREAMS PROGRAM HAS PROVIDED EDUCATIONAL AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT TO HELP CITIZENS AND COMMUNITIES IMPROVE WATER QUALITY AND CONSERVE LOCAL STREAMS. THIS TECHNICAL SUPPORT INCLUDES STREAM MONITORING TRAINING WORKSHOPS PROVIDED BY IWLA STAFF AND HANDBOOKS, VIDEOS AND OTHER RESOURCES THAT PRESENT SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS IN A MANNER THAT LOCAL VOLUNTEERS CAN READILY UNDERSTAND AND USE. IWLA'S WATER PROGRAM ALSO ENGAGES YOUTH WITH NATURE BY USING STREAMS AS LIVING CLASSROOMS, AND WORKS TO PROMOTE PUBLIC POLICIES THAT WILL CONSERVE AND PROTECT WETLANDS AND WATER QUALITY.
COMMUNICATIONS AND MEDIA: THROUGH A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNICATIONS, IWLA EDUCATES ITS MEMBERS, POLICYMAKERS, THE MEDIA, AND THE PUBLIC ABOUT CRITICAL CONSERVATION ISSUES AND STEPS THEY CAN TAKE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, FROM MONITORING WATER QUALITY LOCALLY TO SPEAKING OUT ABOUT IMPORTANT STATE AND NATIONAL POLICY ISSUES. WE ENCOURAGE MORE AMERICANS TO CONNECT WITH THE OUTDOORS, NOT JUST FOR THEIR GOOD HEALTH BUT ALSO TO FOSTER A CONSERVATION ETHIC TO PROTECT CLEAN WATER, FISH AND WILDLIFE, AND OTHER NATURAL RESOURCES.
