'''Landscape Conservation Cooperatives''' (LCC) was a Department of the Interior initiative sponsored by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service that established a network of 22 regional cooperatives across the United States and adjacent areas, uniting over 2,000 partners—including federal agencies, states, tribes, and NGOs—to address climate change and habitat fragmentation from 2009 until its primary operations ceased in 2017. With an initial $25 million investment in 2010, LCCs completed over 300 projects by 2017, reconnecting 64,000+ miles of habitat and training 300,000+ peacekeepers, but faced defunding under the Trump administration, transitioning into partner-led efforts by 2025 with limited federal support, leaving a legacy of tools like the Southeast Conservation Blueprint and Nature’s Network. | '''Landscape Conservation Cooperatives''' (LCC) was a [[Department of the Interior]] initiative sponsored by the [[Fish and Wildlife Service|U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service]] that established a network of 22 regional cooperatives across the United States and adjacent areas, uniting over 2,000 partners—including federal agencies, states, tribes, and NGOs—to address climate change and habitat fragmentation from 2009 until its primary operations ceased in 2017. | ||
