Audubon Campus Chapters

Join America’s most effective conservation leaders and be part of Audubon’s legacy to protect birds and the places they need.

Audubon helps passionate student leaders from all disciplines build leadership skills, relationships—and their resumes—while collaborating to create meaningful change on and off-campus.

Campus chapters are formed within the official guidelines of your college or university and formally recognized through a simple process with Audubon. We have a dedicated team to support you through this process. Email: CampusChapters@audubon.org for more information.
