New York City Audubon Information

NYC Audubon is a grassroots organization that works for the protection of wild birds and habitat in the five boroughs, improving the quality of life for all New Yorkers. For over 40 years, NYC Audubon has championed nature in the City through engaging educational programs and innovative conservation campaigns. Through these efforts, we protect the more than 300 species of birds living in the 30,000 acres of wetlands, forests, and grasslands of New York City. NYC Audubon is an independent nonprofit organization. We affiliate with and often collaborate with Audubon New York and the National Audubon Society, but we're a separate entity from these organizations. STATEMENT ON EQUITY, DIVERSITY, INCLUSION, & ACCESSIBILITY NYC Audubon believes all people have the right to a close connection to the natural world and the right to a healthy environment. Preserving our environment is only possible if we all feel that connection. We recognize that inequities in our society are widespread and hinder access to nature. Only by embracing equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility as values and striving for them in practice will we begin to foster a love of nature in all people and inspire them to be active stewards of the environment. We further believe that to thrive as an organization and effectively advance our mission and vision, the diversity of New York City’s people must be represented in, and welcomed into, our leadership, staff, and membership. The expertise, values, and perspectives of a diverse and inclusive organization are fundamental to expanding the reach and impact of our conservation, advocacy, and educational efforts. We commit to building an equitable, diverse, inclusive, and accessible NYC Audubon, dedicated to protecting nature for all of New York City’s people and its wild birds.
