Whether the bogs of the Northwoods, the coastal marshes along Lake Michigan, the kettles of southeastern Wisconsin, or the floodplains of the Wisconsin River, wetlands play a role in virtually all of Wisconsin's and North America's landscapes. We are a statewide organization working to protect wetlands throughout Wisconsin. Our mission statement guides us as we decide which programs to develop and which issues to take on.

We influence wetland issues throughout our nation by working with Ducks Unlimited, the Healing our Waters Coalition, the Association of State Wetland Managers, the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands, the U.S. National Ramsar Committee, the Wisconsin Bird Conservation Initiative, the Wisconsin Coastal Management Program, and other regional or nationwide initiatives. We voice our support for good national wetland policies and work to share our wetland protection successes with our colleagues throughout the nation for the benefit of all wetlands.
