Outreach & Support

At the Idaho State Historic Preservation Office, our Preservation Assistance initiative serves as a comprehensive resource hub empowering communities, property owners, and preservation professionals across Idaho to protect, interpret, and celebrate the state’s historic, archaeological, and cultural treasures. From statewide and local planning guidance—including the Idaho Historic Preservation Plan and Certified Local Government support—to technical resources such as Preservation Briefs and Easement Program tools, the program fosters collaboration, provides funding opportunities, and offers actionable strategies tailored to diverse preservation needs.
