Welcome...

The State Environmental Leadership Program (SELP) is a staff-supported network of independent environmental activist organizations that focus on state level policy to preserve, protect and enhance the natural and human environment, and the health and quality of life for all people.

Our Mission:

SELP improves the quality of state level advocacy, and thereby achieves state and national environmental gains, and enhances democracy and justice. SELP achieves this through direct assistance and coordination efforts that strengthen the strategic and organizational capacity of SELP members.

Our Vision:

Every state will have at least one state policy organization that is smart, powerful and well run:

Smart: strategically guided; clearly defined and followed mission; active and engaged board; cultural competency

Powerful: no significant environmental decision is made in a state without our group’s knowledge and consent.

Well run: effective financial tools and management, effective personnel management tools, competitive staff compensation, diverse and stable funding.
