Best Practice: Building Local Support & Credibility

Developing a strategy and supporting documents can help tell a collaborative group’s story and build public support -- In 2014 the Elkhorn Restoration Committee, which focuses on the Elkhorn Mountain wildlife management area of the Helena and Beaverhead‐Deerlodge National Forests in Montana, developed a communication strategy members call the Inform, Involve, and Educate Outreach Program. The strategy was developed to build public support and credibility for the group, and also to help recruit new members. The Restoration Committee hopes to share its story, accomplishments, and program of work with members of local government, sportsmenʹs organizations, community groups, schools, businesses, and private landowners.
