About the Campaign

In an effort to raise funds to repair and improve the national office in Washington, D.C., NACD has launched the 509 Capitol Court Campaign.

Conservation districts came together twenty years ago to purchase their national office in Washington, D.C. Since that initial purchase, the national office is in need of renovation and improvements to better serve NACD in the twenty-first century and continue the legacy of conservation districts. We need your help!

Additional information on the 509 Capitol Court Campaign is available, including a downloadable brochure and details on specific building repairs.
