This Bureau of Land Management (BLM) grant offers funding to develop and maintain wildlife viewing areas and provide comprehensive wildlife-based educational and outreach opportunities across the National System of Public Lands. Recognizing wildlife viewing as the second most popular outdoor activity in the United States, the BLM is committed to fostering a deeper connection between the American public, especially children and families, and their public lands. These efforts are a crucial part of a Secretarial priority aimed at enhancing public engagement with natural resources. By supporting these initiatives, this grant will not only enrich outdoor experiences but also significantly increase public support for vital wildlife resource conservation efforts and the protection of essential wildlife habitats for the long term.
