“Nmwf is committed to engaging the next generation of outdoor enthusiasts and fostering a high quality of life for all new mexicans. Through fishing, rafting, hiking, camping, archery, and science-based conservation education, the federation creates opportunities for new mexico's youth and families not only to learn about and connect to our public lands and watersheds, but also to one another. Along these lines and recognizing that culture plays an important role in conservation, the federation brings rural, urban, underserved, and tribal youth from throughout new mexico together in outdoor activities and cross-cultural conversations about how their culture informs their understanding of new mexico's land, water, and wildlife. Additionally, by bringing together youth with local, state, and federal officials, we also highlight the importance of civic education and engagement, and the role policy plays in protecting our environment. In recent years, the federation has also undertaken in-the-field conservation work in the form of waterway restoration, regeneration of native plant species, and removal of invasive vegetation. The federation's main sources of support and revenue are grants, contributions, and contracts.”
