About this organization
Mission
Leading the conservation, sound management, and wise use of Tennessee's wildlife and great outdoors.
About
Conservation policy: Since 1946, TWF's efforts to perpetuate the conservation and environmental sustainability of Tennessee's wildlife and natural resources has been central to its mission. Thanks to a recent investment in staff capacity in accordance with its strategic plan, Tennessee Wildlife Federation's influence has grown statewide and nationally. The federation is increasingly collaborating with national conservation nonprofits to work on large issues and taking leadership roles on statewide initiatives. Examples include work on procuring funding to combat the spread of Asian carp, engaging Tennessee's gubernatorial candidates and getting them on the record about their conservation platforms, and helping TWRA address how to balance commercial canoe and kayak outfitters on our best fishing rivers.
