Welcome to Salmon Valley Stewardship, an organization that is working with the communities of Central Idaho to integrate environmental stewardship into economic and community development activities.
Traditional economic development activities don't often consider long term impacts to the environment. Additionally, traditional environmental advocacy sometimes fails to consider economic prosperity and social well-being. We see a new way forward for the rural communities of Central Idaho, one that considers the human community as part of the natural community. We are partnering with local and regional organizations in order to build our region's capacity to build a sustainable economy.
We are working to educate and empower community members to be involved in local planning and decision making processes. Please join us in working for the responsible development and sustainable use of the natural resources of Central Idaho.
