Our Story
Klamath Forest Alliance, advocating for the Klamath-Siskiyou mountain region since 1989
The Klamath Forest Alliance (KFA) has been advocating for the Klamath-Siskiyou Mountains since 1989. The organization was formed by rural residents in the most remote reaches of the Klamath-Siskiyou Mountains and has always maintained a strong grassroots approach. We advocate for wilderness and roadless landscapes, biodiversity, connectivity and the ecological integrity of the region.
Klamath Forest Alliance has long been focused on the watersheds of northern California including the Klamath River, Salmon River, Scott River, Smith River and Trinity River. However, since 2012 we have been steadily broadening our scope and expanding north into the Siskiyou Mountains. We now also work in numerous Oregon watersheds, including the Applegate River, Rogue River, Chetco River and Illinois River watersheds.
Our Approach
Klamath Forest Alliance is working to build a diverse, grassroots environmental movement, rooted in the rural communities that surround our public lands. We combine passionate advocacy, deep knowledge of the land, on-the-ground public land monitoring, science, community organizing, grassroots environmental activism and litigation to support conservation throughout the Klamath-Siskiyou bioregion. We work to keep the Klamath-Siskiyou wild and to maintain the region’s world-class biodiversity.
