Connect. Collaborate. Support Cochrane’s environment.
The Town of Cochrane, in collaboration with the NEP Task Force Education Subcommittee, is building an Environmental community directory to help connect organizations, groups, businesses, educators and other community partners involved in environmental work in Cochrane.
By joining the directory, you can tell us about your organization, your areas of expertise and the types of opportunities you may be interested in. This will help us better understand the environmental knowledge, programs and resources available in our community and connect organizations when relevant opportunities arise.
Who can join?
We want to hear from organizations that are based in Cochrane or actively work in or support Cochrane's community.
This may include:
- Environmental and conservation organizations
- Non-profit and volunteer groups
- Community associations
- Schools and educational organizations
- Environmental businesses
- Stewardship groups
- Indigenous organizations
- Government and public agencies
- Research and science organizations
- Recreation and outdoor groups
- Other organizations with an environmental focus
You do not need to be a registered non-profit to participate.

How it works
Complete the Environmental community directory form and tell us about your organization, the work you do and the opportunities you are interested in.
Your information will be added to the Town’s environmental organizations & community partners directory and may be used to identify organizations to contact when relevant opportunities arise.
Joining the directory does not create a commitment or obligation for your organization or the Town. It simply helps us make connections and identify opportunities that may be a good fit.
