Throughout its 33-year history, first as the National Institute for the
Conservation of Cultural Property and then under its current name, *Heritage
Preservation* has fulfilled its mission to preserve the nation’s heritage
for future generations through innovative leadership and educational
agendas. It has steadily advocated for the protection of cultural heritage
by creating programs, publications, and easily accessed products that
advance the field of conservation and serve the needs of allied
preservation professions.



Heritage Preservation’s programs have been tested and proven. Hence, they
are trusted and highly valued. Their loss would be severely felt throughout
the cultural heritage community. Research undertaken over the past six
months indicates that several synergies exist between the programs of the
DC-based Foundation of the American Institute for Conservation of Historic
and Artistic Works (FAIC) and Heritage Preservation. For this reason,
following the recent vote by Heritage Preservation members approving its
dissolution as of June 30, 2015, several popular Heritage Preservation
programs will transition to FAIC, thus ensuring their continuation.

including Heritage Health Information 2014, Alliance for Response, the
Conservation Assessment Program, and Heritage Preservation’s joint awards –
