A primary focus of ACES is to foster economic growth in the region through the managed development of the area's natural resources. It will work with existing businesses and facilitate the development of new local enterprises to explore the use of regional plants for health-related purposes. ACES will also help to document and preserve Appalachian culture as it relates to wild plant harvesting and herbal medicine through community outreach and education programs. Currently a "virtual center," the goal of ACES is to develop a physical facility within the next five years that will be located in Western Maryland and house a conference center, a museum/education center, and a research center.
