The Illinois Nature Preserves Alliance

(Dow Fellows Program 2015)

This report proposes a solution for critical funding and capacity shortages in the management of the Illinois Nature Preserves System. It does so by reviewing the state of Illinois’ public land management needs, existing actors and resources, and by ultimately proposing the basic architecture of a nonprofit tailored to work in concert with the Illinois Nature Preserves Commission.
