Advocacy


The Warren Preservation Society is active in promoting the preservation of historic buildings throughout the Town of Warren through our historic house marker program, public exhibits, guest speaker programs, renovation projects and education. Historic Preservation contributes to a strong local community by building awareness of the town's rich history and architectural heritage.  A valuable piece of our past disappears forever when historic buildings are torn down or allowed to deteriorate. In addition to our own educational programs, WPS advocates for Historic Preservation throughout the town of Warren and actively the supports the efforts of the Warren Voluntary Historic District Commission. WPS also supports the efforts of the Warren Heritage Foundation.  For more information on Warren's various historical and preservation oriented groups please visit the Historic Warren website.  

As part of our advocacy mission, WPS is a sponsor of the MOSAICO "Sense of Pride" program. The program teaches children about their town - its history, architecture and natural environment, with the goal of inspiring them to become thoughtful and active stewards of their community.
