Mission and programs · 2024

• THE NORTHWOODS CONSERVATION CORPS IS A HANDS-ON CONSERVATION-BASED EDUCATION AND EMPLOYMENT PROGRAM FOR YOUTH (AGES 14 AND UP) AND EMERGING PROFESSIONALS (ADULTS WHO COMPRISE THE PROFESSIONAL CREWS). CREW MEMBERS ARE HIRED FROM COMMUNITIES SURROUNDING PROJECT AREAS AND ARE PROVIDED WITH HIGH-QUALITY CONSERVATION TRAINING AND ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION. THE EXPERIENCE PROVIDES AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUTH TO EXPLORE CAREER PATHS IN VARIOUS FIELDS OF CONSERVATION AND SCIENCE AND NATURAL RESOURCES AND PROVIDES A MEANINGFUL WORK EXPERIENCE FOR EMERGING PROFESSIONALS. IN 2024, WE EMPLOYED MORE THAN 80 CONSERVATION CORPS STAFF! THE CONSERVATION CORPS PROJECT PARTNERS INCLUDE FEDERAL AGENCIES, LOCAL VOLUNTEER ORGANIZATIONS, AND A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNITY, CONSERVATION AND RECREATION ORGANIZATIONS.

• THE GOAL OF THE CONSERVATION SCIENCE PROGRAM IS TO IMPLEMENT PROJECTS, PARTICIPATE IN WORK GROUPS, AND PROMOTE PARTNERSHIPS THAT SUPPORT ECOLOGICAL HEALTH, HABITAT ENHANCEMENT, AND WATER QUALITY. THE RIPARIAN LANDS CREW CONTINUED A LONGER SEASON, REMAINING FOCUSED ON SEED COLLECTION AND RIPARIAN RESTORATION. THE CREWS ALSO IMPLEMENTED A WIDE RANGE OF WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS - INCLUDING OPEN TOP CULVERTS, INFILTRATION STEPS, INVASIVE SPECIES REMOVAL, RIPARIAN BUFFER NATIVE PLANTINGS ETC. KEY PARTNERSHIPS WITH AREA LAKE ASSOCIATIONS, STATE WIDE ORGANIZATIONS, AND MUNICIPAL GROUPS WERE ESSENTIAL TO IMPLEMENTING THESE PROJECTS.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.
