TESTIMONIALS
Four years in a row, the readers of the regional magazine Blue Ridge Outdoors have voted SELC Most Effective Environmental Group. SELC enjoys similar respect from our colleagues and adversaries alike, based on our high degree of professionalism and 20+ years of success.
The Southern Environmental Law Center works behind the scenes to make a difference for future generations. This organization leads conservation initiatives in six southern states to strengthen environmental protection laws and policies.
Simply put, SELC is the muscle behind many of the landmark environmental actions in the Southeast. SELC attorneys have restored integrity and inspiration to the oft-slandered legal profession.
Because SELC selects its cases carefully, and because its attorneys are so knowledgeable in their fields, it brings a high level of credibility into the courtroom—one of the most important attributes of a successful legal effort. I can’t say enough about SELC’s professionalism, passion, and expertise. Everyone deserves the opportunity to see how your organization works from the inside.
SELC is one of the most effective environmental groups in the Southeast. They deal with regional issues that we live with every day, and I am impressed with their impact and approach. They have made it their point to understand the ecology and science as well as the law and policy.
We are all worried our kids will grow up in a world that is unhealthy and divorced from nature, and that they won’t know the natural world and special places like we have known…We all wonder ‘what can I, as one person, do?’ Fortunately, SELC has the vision, experience, and legal power to act on our behalf.
SELC is a consistent voice for one of the most beautiful and biologically diverse regions in the world. They truly play a major role in defining the environmental future of the South.
The importance of the Southeast really can’t be overstated. By working together with SELC, we believe we can be much more effective in finding solutions that are durable in addressing some of the tremendous human health and environmental challenges. SELC helps us make the most of our resources to achieve greater results.
SELC has never been afraid to go into corporate boardrooms with open minds.
SELC is known as having very smart lawyers who can see the bigger picture. They’re great in the courtroom, and they’re politically savvy. ...They’re real heavyweights.
I’ve been exposed to a lot of non-profit organizations, and I will say that the Southern Environmental Law Center has the most impressive staff out there. There is no group more worthy of the investment.
