Page "Native Forest Council" Paragraph 9

Beginning with 15 members, the NFC set out to educate Americans to the fact that their National forests were being destroyed.

Today, the Native Forest Council is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization with over 2000 dues-paying members.

During the late 1980s and early 2000s the NFC had distributed over 1 million copies nationally of Forest Voice newspaper ; obtained 2 million signatures in support of the Native Forest Protection Act ( legislation designed to protect all of the remaining National Forests ) and acquired the major endorsements of Greenpeace, the National Audubon Society, chapters of the Sierra Club, and the Association of Forest Service Employees for Environmental Ethics.
