Celebrating its five-year anniversary, the Campaign for America's Wilderness works to protect the nation's remaining wild lands to ensure an enduring legacy of wilderness for future generations. We join with state and local partners to raise public awareness of our special wild lands and to secure dependable, permanent protection for wild lands administered by the U.S. Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and other federal agencies. Since the Campaign was launched in 2002, Congress has added or expanded 74 wilderness areas across nine state -- boosting the National Wilderness Preservation System by 2.4 million acres.
