The Adirondack Council is a nonprofit organization based in Elizabethtown, New York, dedicated to preserving the ecological integrity and wild character of Adirondack Park for current and future generations. It seeks a Park characterized by clean water and air, expansive wilderness, and communities supported by working farms and forests. To pursue this aim, the council educates the public and policymakers, advocates for regulations, policies, and funding that benefit the Park's environment and communities, and monitors proposals, legislation, and policies that affect the Park. It also takes legal action to defend constitutional protections and agency policies designed to protect the Adirondack Park. The organization serves residents, policymakers, and other stakeholders involved in land use and environmental stewardship in the Adirondack region. In March 2025, it expanded its leadership with the appointment of Andrew Williams as Director of Government Relations and the promotion of Kevin Chlad to Deputy Director.
