Partner biologists work with landowners, agencies, and non-governmental organizations to help improve wildlife habitat and the sustainability of working lands. They increase the capacity of existing agencies, such as the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), as well bring in new partners and investors in private land conservation.� In California, partner biologists are adding value by identifying wildlife habitat opportunities within the regular NRCS Conservation Planning process, writing plans specifically for funds designated for wildlife benefits, providing additional capacity to monitor projects, helping with collaborative planning efforts in the local community, and connecting innovative producers and conservation partners.
