If you’d like to make a difference, the IWLA is the group to join. Your thoughts can truly be implemented into action at local, state and national levels, and our efforts do indeed make a difference. There would be no Boundary Waters without the Minnesota Ikes. Voyageurs National Park may not have happened. Several National Wildlife Refuges would not be here in Minnesota, and government’s wildlife, forestry, and fisheries policies have all benefited from our input. To learn more about our accomplishments in our state, read about Minnesota Ikes and the BWCA. And if you think we're just living in the past, make sure you read the above issues to understand the projects we're involved in locally.

Please consider joining us! To learn how, please visit our membership page.
