Our goal is to achieve lasting conservation results that benefit the people and nature of Michigan. However, the ecological health of the Great Lakes is at risk. Habitat loss, incompatible land use, changes in hydrology, and invasive species all present unprecedented challenges across Michigan and the Great Lakes Basin. Successfully combating these challenges requires strategic plans of action, cooperative and committed partnerships across geo-political boundaries, and an ability to adapt according to changing conditions. Across Michigan, the Conservancy is employing a full suite of tools to help restore and maintain a Great Lakes ecosystem that will sustain a wide diversity of plant and animal life and support the needs of people for generations to come.
