ILPA was established in 2000 as a coalition of land trusts, government agencies and other organizations seeking to coordinate efforts for land conservation. Thanks to their efforts, ILPA filed for incorporation in 2004, gained 501(c)(3) status in 2016, and has been building a professional workforce since 2019. We are guided by our shared vision of a resilient future for Indiana lands. Collaboration has always been central to our mission. Together, we celebrate successes, overcome challenges, and work to conserve and restore land in Indiana.
