The I-90 Wildlife Bridges Coalition grew out of The Cascades Conservation Partnership, a four-year campaign that has played a lead role in acquiring and protecting over 34,000 acres of forest habitat since May 2000. Most of the protected lands are in the immediate vicinity of the I-90 project area. Conservation NW is the administering group. The Coalition has attracted a diverse set of organizational members and other forms of support. This list will be updated as additional organizations and businesses indicate their support.
