About Momentum Conservation

Momentum Conservation (formerly Southern Maine Conservation Collaborative) was founded in 2012 as a service center to assist conservation organizations in southern Maine with hands on assistance specific to organizational needs. Because our theory of change is rooted in the idea that solutions forged together and in partnership are more lasting and effective, we also serve to build connections within the conservation sector, and between conservation and broader community issues. Our mission is to work collectively in Maine to create mutually beneficial relationships with the earth, communities, and people through the conservation movement. These are the ways of being in the world and with each other that guide our actions as an organization. We commit and hold ourselves accountable to the following values: CONNECTION: to be aware of and rooted in our connection to nature and each other as the foundation of systemic change; and to be active in ensuring that those that are most often excluded are included. HUMILITY: to listen and be open minded; be accountable; change our path based on new information; accept that we do not know it all; acknowledge and trust that some next steps will present themselves in time. COURAGE: to tell the truth, to try new things, to make mistakes, to seek out and listen to voices that haven’t been listened to, to persevere when faced with challenges. JUSTICE and EQUITY: to ensure our work is not perpetuating the biases and disparities that disproportionately burden communities of color, indigenous communities, people with physical and mental disabilities, and low-income communities with legacies of environmental damage and on-going harm; to work toward fixing inequitable systems, including the nonprofit sector and those that exist in our own organization.
