    About CLF

    Conservation Law Foundation (CLF) protects New England’s environment for the benefit of all people.

To that end, CLF frequently works with communities of color, and those that are economically or otherwise disadvantaged, which often suffer disproportionately from the impacts of environmental degradation.
