Doing Our Work Now

In the past several days, President Trump’s Administration has issued a number of directives whose broad language reaches across many areas of preservation work. National Trust staff are working to understand the implications of these directives. This will take time, and we expect further clarification from the administration. As we learn more, we will share information with you.

In the meantime, our work continues, with you as our trusted partners, supporters, and friends. Together, we activate the power of historic places to serve the public good, improve people’s lives, and enable a shared future in which all people can thrive.

Thank you for your ongoing commitment to that work.
