Review for San Luis Valley Ecosystem Council, Alamosa, CO, USA
The San Luis Valley Ecosystem Council through its Executive Director, Christine Canaly, has been an endless support to me in my life. She offers countless volunteer hours to protect our public lands. Our way of life depends on the land, and Christine has honored the traditions that exist in the San Luis Valley, while translating mainstream legal tools to all our residents for our self-empowerment. My first interaction with SLVEC was during our historic battle with Los Alamos National Laboratory, the San Luis & Rio Grande Railroad, and EnergySolutions, our very own David versus Goliath situation in the southern end of the SLV. We were without infrastructure, without support, in crisis mode, and in need of help and support from our community. Christine was the lone voice offering us a hand from the stress of the situation. She has been a fearless leader, strong mentor, and the epitome of living her ideals. Christine's leadership translates to the culture at SLVEC to be the premier land advocacy organization near us and partnering with us in many legal battles, collaborating in many land use issues, and providing guidance on complex political and environmental situations. This non-profit is on the top of my donation list yearly, and is money well spent.
