Ripple Effect Workgroup

The Trout Unlimited Ripple Effect workgroup embodies our commitment to connected conservation by building whole communities around our mission. Drawing on nearly two decades of work by TU’s grassroots volunteers and staff, the Ripple Effect fosters collaboration and shared learning through small, trusted groups that develop strategies for creating a more welcoming organization and supporting all voices in conservation. The name “Ripple Effect” reflects how this work extends outward, empowering TU’s network of 425 chapters and councils to engage whole communities to strengthen and sustain TU’s coldwater conservation mission.
