USFWS official and citizen, credit USFWSWelcome to the Partnerships Portal of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, a Federal bureau located within the Department of the Interior. The mission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is working with others to conserve, protect and enhance fish, wildlife, and plants and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people. Our ability to achieve our mission depends on active cooperation with others. Fish and Wildlife Service is committed to a collaborative approach to conservation. Our strategy is to empower Americans to become citizen conservationists. The more the Service can empower people as stewards of the land, the more effective we can be in our conservation mission.

The Service works with other Department of Interior bureaus and government agencies in building a partnership-based approach to stewardship through a process Secretary Norton calls the 4C's - conservation through cooperation, communication, and consultation.
