Our Partners

Western National Parks Association
As the cooperating association for the monument, WNPA provides financial support for interpretive and education activities, provides funding for publications, produces and sells interpretive materials, provides Information Assistant positions in visitor centers, and makes research grants. Stores are found at seventy National Park Service locations, and purchases to support the Parks may also be made on-line.

U.S. Forest Service
Participates in interpretive partnership with the National Park Service, to provide programs on NPS and USFS lands and in local communities. Cooperative efforts by the two agencies improve protection of resources on government-managed lands.

Northern Arizona University
NAU students and staff participate in a variety of NPS programs, including research projects, interpretive program development, staff training, and consultation in specific subject matter. NPS staff in turn participate in NAU classes, projects, and field trips.

Museum of Northern Arizona
MNA sponsored much of the early archeological research conducted in northern Arizona and promoted establishment of the Flagstaff Area National Monuments. Many of the objects from our park museum collections are stored and curated at MNA, which facilitates their use by researchers. Most recently, MNA provided design and fabrication services for new exhibits in the Sunset Crater Volcano and Wupatki National Monument Visitor Centers.
