Our Work & Impact
The NFF partners with communities across all 193 million acres of America's National Forests to create lasting change on the ground.
Build Wildfire Resilience
Wildfires can be unpredictable, but the NFF stays prepared. We work to reduce wildfire impact by collaborating with local communities and partners to fortify forests, protect nearby homes, and maintain habitats.
Restore Lands and Watersheds
Healthy forests mean clean water for one in three Americans. The NFF restores native habitats, repairs streams, and plants millions of new trees to reinvigorate and protect these vital resources.
Enhance Recreation Opportunities
National Forests belong to all of us. That’s why we’re taking care of the trails, campgrounds, and infrastructure that keep them safe and accessible to over 170 million visitors each year.
