IRS990/Desc0Policy: Friends of the Inyo's largest program is its policy engagement program. In 2024, FOI continued to advocate for and protect California's Eastern Sierra from inappropriate projects aimed at extracting water and minerals from ecologically and culturally sensitive areas. FOI continued to advance campaigns to permanently protect 160,000 acres in southern Inyo County, and to designate a new Area of Critical Environmental Concern in northern Mono County. Additionally, through its policy engagement program, Friends of the Inyo achieved many protections for the land by advocating for conservation focused management provisions in recreation development proposals and federal land management plans.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Stewardship: Friends of the Inyo effectively cared for the lands of the Eastern Sierra in 2024 through its stewardship program. This includes physical programs for protection and restoration of public lands through habitat monitoring and improvement, removal of invasive species, removal of human debris, and maintenance with the intent to limit the expansion of human dsiturbance in natural environments. Typical seasonal stewardship activities include trail and campground maintenance, restoration of disturbed sites, and public outreach and education. Our organization partners with local schools, college groups, donors, as well as local and federal agencies to care for the public lands of the Eastern Sierra.
