For fifty years Northern Plains has been working to ensure that the voices of individual Montanans can be heard and everyday people will always be able to make a difference in how we treat our land, water, and climate. Learn more about how we work, how we win, and the people that make us effective.
We believe that true prosperity begins with healthy land, water, and air. Learn more about the ways we are protecting Montana’s natural resources and working landscapes through the variety of issues we tackle everyday.
We are from the plains and mountains, cities and towns. We are everyday Montanans who love where we live. Learn more about our local groups organizing in communities across Montana.
The actions we take today will determine the world that our children and grandchildren inherit. Working together, right now, we can ensure true prosperity for generations to come. Find out how you can support our mission today!
