Land trust accreditation is a mark of distinction, showing that a land trust meets high standards for land conservation. Accreditation demonstrates that a land trust has successfully implemented Land Trust Standards and Practices.
Accreditation is a catalyst for improvement, which results in faster, better, stronger conservation. The accreditation seal offers the assurance that a land trust can keep the promise of perpetuity and that it is worthy of the public trust. Accreditation strengthens both individual land trusts and America’s land conservation movement.
