Who We Are

Southern Nevada Conservancy, a 501c3 nonprofit organization based in Las Vegas, NV, serves Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area under a formal agreement with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in many ways, including interpretive programming, fee-station management, retail operations, and this website.

Southern Nevada Conservancy is honored to work on and steward public lands across Nevada, which are the ancestral homelands of several Indigenous Peoples, including the Southern Paiute, Chemehuevi, and Western Shoshone peoples. We honor and respect the enduring connections that Indigenous communities have to this land and strive to support and collaborate with local tribes as an integral part of our mission.
