The Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership (TRCP) is a special kind of non-profit group. It brings together many different organizations, local community groups, and businesses that care about the outdoors. Their main goal is to make sure the United States government provides more money to protect nature. They also work to keep places open for people who enjoy hunting and fishing.

What is the TRCP?

The TRCP is like a team of nature lovers. They are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. This means they are a charity that works for the public good. They focus on making sure our natural places stay healthy. They also want to ensure people can still enjoy outdoor sports. These sports include hunting, fishing, and other activities.

How Does TRCP Help Nature?

The TRCP talks to important decision-makers in the government. This is called lobbying. They ask these leaders to do more to help the environment. One big issue they talk about is climate change. Climate change is when the Earth's weather patterns change over a long time. The TRCP believes this will greatly affect hunters and fishers. They want to protect the places where animals live and grow.

Working with Other Groups

The TRCP often works with other groups. For example, they have teamed up with the National Wildlife Federation. They also work with Trout Unlimited. Together, they formed a group called "Sportsmen for Responsible Energy Development." This group works to protect natural resources. Natural resources are things like clean water, forests, and wildlife. They want to make sure these resources are used wisely. This helps keep our outdoor spaces healthy for everyone.
