Land Stewardship Action Fund (c4)
Organization Description
Land Stewardship Action impacts elections and supports candidates at all levels of government. LSP's membership realized we could no longer sit on the sidelines in the current political environment. To make a bigger difference to advance our values of stewardship, justice, fairness, democracy, community, and health for people and the land, we need to engage LSP’s base in elections at all levels and support candidates for office who will lead with us and champion our priorities. They recognized the power that comes with being able to drive forward the same missions as LSP, but with an expanded set of tools.
2025 Programs
During 2025 Land Stewardship Action is focusing on developing its base and leadership in key geographies across the state, where we know we will be organizing and engaging candidates in the 2026 elections. We will work to deepen our relationships with the state and local candidates we've endorsed during past election cycles to further pursue policy solutions together and show the power of endorsements. We will start talking with those in our base, and not yet in our base, about the importance of hyper-local elected and appointed offices in moving forward our shared values and policy priorities.
