Its members are the conservation districts located in the state’s 105 counties. The KACD Board of Directors is composed of five elected members, each of whom represents one of five geographical areas of the state.

The KDA Division of Conservation consults with the SCC to protect and enhance Kansas’ natural resources through the development, implementation and maintenance of policies, guidelines and programs designed to assist local governments and individuals in conserving the state’s renewable resources.
