Mission

GON's mission is to connect Nevadans to the state's diverse outdoor places. We envision a community that discovers, experiences and connects to our state's many natural environments, from wild landscapes and recreational areas to urban trails and parks. We do so through education, service, and community engagement. Many of our programs focus on the needs and lives of families and schoolchildren, especially the underserved who have limited opportunity to experience the great outdoors. 66% of program recipients are considered at-risk or underserved.
