AMERICA’S NATIONAL PARKS, FORESTS, MONUMENTS, WILDLIFE AREAS, AND OTHER PUBLIC LANDS ARE PART OF OUR COUNTRY’S OUTDOOR HERITAGE. Veterans share a strong connection with the outdoors and believe that protecting our national public lands is a patriotic duty. The Vet Voice Foundation supports policies that protect current public lands and conserve new ones through programs such as the LAND AND WATER CONSERVATION FUND (LWCF), which protects national parks and forests and provides grant funding for local community projects.
