Members Only Section

The Members Only page is accessible only by conservation districts and state/territory associations who have paid $775 or above in NACD membership dues (Gold, Platinum and Diamond level members), as well as their staff or board members where indicated by the district or association. To access the Members Only section, please click the button above and enter your NACD username and password. If you are redirected to this message, please contact the NACD Communications Team to review your account settings.

If your district cannot afford to pay the standard NACD membership dues, you may qualify for a reduced rate based on your hardship status. We value your participation in NACD and we want to be a part of helping make your district thrive! Districts claiming hardship dues will be asked to consider a dues payment equal to one percent of their budget (unrestricted funds only). 

If your payment has not been received, you still have access to the following resources for free:

NACD Reports

NACD News Publications

NACD District Guides

District Official Training Program

Grassroots Advocacy
