The mission of CACD is to be the guiding force directed by the Conservation Districts of Colorado to educate, promote, help obtain funds, and provide information on issues and programs aimed at enhancing and protecting our natural resources.  We work with private farm and ranch landowners and small ranchette owners and other suburban developments to assist in wise and proper management of natural resources.  CACD is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization established in 1945 to represent the 76 conservation districts of Colorado--the original conservationists created by Congress in response to the 1930s Dust Bowl.
