On this day of thanks we want to share some words from the Haudenosaunee Thanksgiving Address to express our gratitude to all our supporters and to our Mother Earth whom we work to protect. For the full text go to https://americanindian.si.edu/environment/pdf/01_02_Thanksgiving_Address.pdf.

"We are all thankful to our Mother, the Earth, for she gives us all that we need for life. She supports our feet as we walk about upon her. It gives us joy that she continues to care for us as she has from the beginning of time. To our mother, we send greetings and thanks."

We're grateful to the leadership of Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham's Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department Cabinet Secretary Sarah Cottrell Propst, who was instrumental in creating the Land of Enchantment Legacy Fund. New Mexico's air, land, water, & wildlife are better protected because of her and we wish her the best as she steps down at the end of the year. Thank you!

OUR STRATEGY

GRIP works in communities, in the courts, and in the state legislature

to protect community health, our environment, and natural resources.

Together, we can secure a healthy future for everyone!

OUR WORK

GRIP serves as a watchful guardian of our environment in southwest New Mexico. We keep an eye on activities with the potential to harm community health and our environment, such as polluting mining operations, unsustainable water use, and ecologically harmful projects. In response, we bring technical, policy and legal expertise to protect our land, air, water, public lands and wildlife. By facilitating informed public participation, we engage the public in natural resource use decisions and stewardship of our natural systems.

PROTECT

We work to protect community health and our natural resources by
ensuring responsible operation and reclamation of the region’s mines, by fostering resiliency and water security in the face of the climate crisis, and by saving our special natural areas and public lands for future generations.
