!!! seems it only displays well the 2nd time? ugh.
Lyme Land Conservation Trust is pleased to announce it is applying for accreditation from the Land Trust Alliance (LTA). The LTA is a national association of Land Trusts with over 1100 member trusts across the country. The land trust accreditation program recognizes land conservation organizations that meet national quality standards for protecting important natural places and working lands forever.
The Commission invites public input. Comments must relate to how the Lyme Land Conservation Trust complies with national quality standards. These standards address the ethical and technical operation of a land trust.

The Land Trust Accreditation Commission, an independent LTA program, conducts an extensive review of each applicantâs policies and programs.
Lyme Land Trust President John Pritchard explains: âThe accreditation process is beneficial to the Land Trust for two reasons. First, the Land Trust Alliance has created a set of rigorous policies, procedures, record keeping and management standards against which we are required to measure our own land trust operations. Consequently, part of the accreditation process consists of upgrading our performance as a land trust so that it complies with these ambitious parameters. Second, LTA accreditation is a stamp of approval of the manner in which a land trust conducts itself and its operations. As such, it contributes to the confidence that individuals, foundations, government agencies, and members of the Lyme community have in providing us with funding and other benefits.
