Our mission is simple. 

The Conservancy enriches people’s lives and enhances our region by inspiring use, preservation and support of Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

Our values are clear:

  •  We believe that Cuyahoga Valley National Park is one of the greatest assets to our region and we will protect it, promote it and encourage people to enjoy it.
  • We are committed to equity and justice in our organizational practices, in our outreach and in community engagement. We embrace diversity and will practice inclusion internally and externally, assuring that all people are welcome in the park, in employment, in volunteerism and in Conservancy programs.
  • We are committed to the health and well being of park visitors, of our employees and volunteers and of the broader community.
  •  The park is an asset to our community and we will be engaged in the broader northeast Ohio community to assure that our work is relevant, nimble and adapting to the needs and interests of those who live, work, and play in our region.


Discover How Member Support Helps Make a Difference in CVNP

It’s not only our members and donors who help CVNP. Every time a couple hosts their wedding in the park, a shopper buys a t-shirt at Trail Mix, or a music lover attends a concert at Happy Days Lodge, contributions are made to help enhance and preserve Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
