WASHINGTON FOREST PROTECTION ASSOCIATION
THE BENEFITS OF MEMBERSHIP WITH WFPA
WFPA is committed to providing first-class service to our members. WFPA recognizes that the value and effectiveness of our association is dependent on both the strength of participation and character of our members. We strive to be responsive to the needs of our individual members, while at the same time representing the interests of the collective group. WFPA is governed by a Board of Trustees responsible for setting the direction and providing leadership to the association. The efforts of WFPA are based upon the following Board-established goals:
- Advance sustainable forest management as a preferred land use;
- Achieve stability in forest regulation;
- Attain equity and efficiency in forest tax policies;
- Create a sound forestry investment environment;
- Assure the application of science and technology are utilized in development of forest policy;
- Raise public awareness and broaden understanding of sustainable forestry; and
- Foster collaborative relationships with key stakeholders.
WFPA provides expertise and services to support these goals. WFPA staff relies on an active committee system, comprised of member company representatives. These committees provide input and guidance on issues and help to formulate recommendations that are forwarded to the Board of Trustees for action.
