Program areas at The Stewardship Network
EQUIP Member Communities Program The Stewardship Network provides backbone support and technology systems to TSN Member Communities across the nation. Our approach builds inclusivity and diversity into land stewardship efforts and we fully embrace the unique supporting role we play in sparking change through these team efforts. In 2022, The Stewardship Network continued to refine and deliver a suite of support services to Member Communities, which include Stewardship training and education Coordinator support and leadership development Event registration/communications Structural technology support and communication services Administrative, HR, and fiscal sponsorship services. TSN hosted 50 trainings and workshops, for its diverse and continually growing supporter base.

These projects included Collaborating Well Capacity Support, California Landscape Stewardship Network Capacity Support, USFS CWMA - Duluth CISMAs Boosting Invasive Species Control Work, Great Lakes Islands Alliance Capacity Support, Above/Below Capacity Support, Muskegon River Watershed Assembly Strategic Planning, Northwest Illinois Stewardship Cooperative Strategic Planning, Great Lakes CWMA Survey, Strategy, and Support, and USFS CWMA Huron Arbors Washtenaw County Stiltgrass Working Group.
CONNECT Learning Engagement Program The Stewardship Network has become an enormous nexus of relevant, specialized knowledge through decades of successful collaboration. While that hard-earned wisdom is leveraged all year long in service of our TSN Member Communities, we chose long ago to dedicate a meaningful portion of our energies to sharing these learnings with the widest audience possible. In 2022, these activities included 2022 Annual Conference held virtually, 2022 Spring Challenge, Monthly Webcasts, and Gloves for Good. See Schedule O for further details.
