ABOUT THE MISSOURI WILDERNESS COALITION
|
Missouri Wilderness Coalition (MWC) is an informal but vigorous affiliation of organizations and
individuals in support and defense of the scarce remaining resources of wildness on the public lands
in our state. Dating from the 1970’s, we have worked with Missouri’s conservation community, the
Forest Service, the general public, and the Missouri Congressional delegation for the statutory
designation of a number of Wilderness Areas, including seven on the Mark Twain National Forest and
one in Mingo National Wildlife Refuge. MWC seeks the broadest possible partnerships, and focuses
only on issues that are directly related to the protection of wildness and wilderness.
If you would like to get in touch with the Missouri Wilderness Coalition, learn what you can do to help
protect wilderness in Missouri, or find out where to send a donation, please feel free to
contact us at any time. Though MWC is entirely volunteer-based,
donations to help pay for a multitude of operating and materials costs are greatly appreciated.

As of April 2008, the Missouri Wilderness Coalition's Proposal For Wilderness Areas has been endorsed by the
following organizations. This is a rapidly growing list, and we anticipate more conservation, sportsmen's,
recreational, and local citizen groups will be added in the very near future.
