Member Resources

The Izaak Walton League of America (IWLA) is a national conservation powerhouse working to streamline the protection of our natural resources and branch out into communities through outdoor recreation and environmental stewardship. Members enjoy a robust toolkit of resources that help their chapters flourish, including how-to guides for chapter leadership, communication strategies, and conservation program materials. From diving into water quality through Save Our Streams and Salt Watch to planting the seeds of sustainable agriculture, IWLA members have access to hands-on tools and training that help them make a real impact.

Here in Illinois, we've got our own field guide to engagement. Members can tap into key documents like the President’s Message, bylaws, delegate counts, and meeting minutes to stay rooted in transparency and connected to statewide efforts. Advocacy alerts and conservation activities help members mobilize their forces for nature when it’s time to speak up for clean air, land, and water. Our committees offer the perfect habitat for collaboration, letting members dig into areas they’re passionate about—from youth engagement to legislative action. Whether you're leading a chapter or just getting your feet wet, the Illinois Division is here to help you grow your impact.
