Join the TRCP, a community of hunters and anglers advocating for commonsense solutions to our most pressing natural resource challenges.
When it comes to quality places to hunt, fish, and trap, Alaska is unique and—in the minds of many—unparalleled. The Great Land is home to iconic fish and game species with significant recreational, subsistence, and cultural values. From the coastal rainforests of Southeast Alaska to the Arctic tundra, no other state offers more fish and wildlife habitat, or more hunting and angling opportunities in big, wild country.
The TRCP focuses our conservation efforts on more than 300 million acres of federal and state public lands within Alaska. As a solution-focused organization, the TRCP offers critical information to hunters and anglers about when and how to get involved to conserve habitat and maintain and grow our wildlife resources.

Chelsea Pardo joined the TRCP as the Alaska Senior Program Manager in December 2024. She lives in the Mat-Su Valley in Alaska. Chelsea holds an Associate of Applied Science in Fisheries Technology and a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from the University of Alaska. She is currently pursuing a Master of Public Administration with a focus on public policy analysis.
Chelsea’s professional background is centered on conservation across the non-profit, private, and governmental sectors in Alaska, Montana, and New Hampshire. Most recently, she managed the Governor’s Permit Program through the Alaska Department of Fish and Game’s Wildlife Conservation Division. In this role, she collaborated with non-profit organizations to raffle or auction hunting and bear viewing permits, raising funds for statewide wildlife management and research efforts.
Outside of work, Chelsea serves on the board of directors for the Mat-Su Trails and Parks Foundation, which provides grants to local organizations for trail and park development. She also enjoys spending time with her yellow lab, Winston, and getting outdoors to hike, camp, mountain bike, fly fish, or hunt.
