Mission
The Northwest Center for Alternatives to Pesticides (NCAP) works to protect community and environmental health and inspire the use of ecologically sound solutions to reduce the use of pesticides.
Program accomplishments
- Healthy Food and Farms: We supported historically underserved producers in arid Eastern Oregon by conducting habitat assessments, developing customized plans, and completing on-the-ground habitat installations in challenging Great Basin conditions. The project focused on reducing barriers for Tribal producers, beginning farmers and small-scale landowners. These sites used non-herbicide site preparation and maintenance methods improving the habitat for pollinators and other beneficial insects in landscapes with limited water and high invasive pressure. Additionally, we created a two-part webinar series on Organic Wild Crop Harvest Certification, supporting land management professionals and individuals in becoming certified wild crop harvesters. These trainings equipped participants to pursue certification and promoted sustainable harvesting practices. There were 300 plus viewers of Wild Crop Harvest Certificate trainings. There were 5 pollinator and beneficial insect habitat installations. We planted 800 drought adapted native plants.Expenses $119,045 · revenue $550
- Healthy People and Communities: We produced 26 episodes of our Spanish language radio show "Raices Resiliientes: Voces del Campo" (Resilient Roots: Voices from the fields), in 2025, covering topics like pesticide exposure, climate impacts and risks, environmental health and workers rights. We also continue to expand outreach and education efforts around nitrate contamination in groundwater. This initiative supported undeserved rural families through in-person, culturally responsive education and testing support. We hosted conversations with local health authorities and experts on the Radio Show and offered support interpreting the Mayam Mam language to the Guatemalan community present at events. We had 13,000 radio listeners of live broadcasts and 26 episodes of our radio show, 777 bilingual outreach packets on protecting waters, we provided 15 well water testing kits, 3 languages in which we provided written or verbal education, and 100 plus people who received information on medical benefits and assistance.Expenses $184,937
- Healthy Wildlife and Water: We advanced pesticide pollution prevention across Washington's Columbia River Basis through the Clean, Drain, Dry (CDD) campaign, an effort aimed at stopping the spread of aquatic invasive species and reducing reliance on toxic treatments like copper-based pesticides. Outreach strengthened awareness of aquatic invasive species prevention and non-toxic stewardship practices. We also opposed SB 5915 this year, a bill that would have extended a hazardous chemical tax exemption, as well as successfully advocating for the passage of SB 5972, which bans the use of residential neonicotinoids, essential for reducing pesticide drift and runoff and protecting freshwater ecosystems. Additionally, we made significant progress promoting farm worker health across Central Washington. Through health fairs and active partnerships with regional clinics, we directly engaged over 220 community members and distributed materials focused on recognizing and preventing pesticide exposure. 350 people received Spanish/English well water safety resources. There were 204,000 visitors to our website to receive resources.Expenses $69,402
