Alliance for the Shenandoah Valley

Alliance for the Shenandoah Valley informs and engages people to protect the natural resources, cultural heritages, and rural character of our region. We envision a Shenandoah Valley sustained by farms and forests, clean streams and rivers, and thriving communities.

Working to ensure that the land, water, and community resources of the Shenandoah Valley will be protected for the future, Alliance for the Shenandoah Valley is a 501(c)3 nonprofit formed in 2018 through a merger of five long-standing Valley organizations. The Alliance serves six counties – Augusta, Rockingham, Shenandoah, Frederick, Page and Warren – and the cities within them. The Alliance staff, board of directors, and members champion clean water, thriving communities, and protected rural landscapes. Based in New Market, Virginia, the Alliance serves as a hub for the partnerships needed for conservation work throughout the Shenandoah Valley. The Alliance is led by a talented and engaged volunteer board and a staff of nine full-time and two part-time employees, with deep community connections throughout the service area.
