NACD Listening Sessions
In summer and fall 2019, NACD hosted a series of listening sessions, giving our members the opportunity to provide feedback on our programs and guidance of how we can improve our value as a national association.
These member-focused listening sessions were hosted across the country, giving our members the opportunity to learn more about NACD and its services while expressing their views to NACD’s leadership and staff.
Each listening session provided an overview of NACD’s current services, followed by discussions with members about NACD’s communications, government affairs and stewardship and education work, as well as the Soil Health Champions Network, Technical Assistance Grants Program, Urban Agriculture Conservation Grant Initiative, Conservation Planning Boot Camp, annual meetings and more. These sessions will help NACD determine what programs and services conservation districts want and need, and how the national association can help advance their mission.
Live polling with be part of each listening session. To participate, download the NACD app!
