Arroyos & Foothills Conservancy is a regional nonprofit focused on protecting natural open space in the San Gabriel and Crescenta Valleys of Southern California. Based in Altadena, the organization works to conserve habitat and steward it for long‑term ecological health, while offering free environmental education programs to the community. Its activities target local residents, schools, and partner groups seeking accessible conservation and learning opportunities. In 2024, the conservancy announced the acquisition of 10.4 acres of natural habitat in Glendale, Arizona, illustrating its engagement in land preservation beyond its core service area. The organization operates within the civic and social sector as a regional land conservancy, emphasizing habitat protection and community education. It maintains a relatively small to mid-sized staff to support its local and regional conservation and education initiatives.
