Conservation Partnerships![]() USFWS Photo The California Nevada Operations Office has developed a unique program called the Conservation Partnerships Program (CPP). CPP has brought together a majority of the Service's habitat restoration initiatives into one central location to more strategically deliver these activities. The CPP includes the Partners for Fish and Wildlife program, Coastal program, Joint Ventures, Endangered Species grant program(s), Federal Assistance grants to state programs, and some functions of the Migratory Bird Management Program. CPP program is designed to do several things: 1) Bring a higher level of recognition to developing partnerships and leveraging funding as the desired way of doing business; 2) Provide a cross-programmatic platform for enhancing the delivery of habitat restoration and conservation efforts; 3) Integrate the myriad of inherent partnerships within CPP programs through coordination and communication to provide a greater funding base and pool of expertise to effect restoration projects; 4) Seek opportunities to further the Service's mission through active engagement with a variety of non-traditional public and private partner organizations.
