At Audubon we strive to conserve and restore the habitats we share with all wildlife, focusing on the needs of birds. Audubon's approach to conservation is to empower our broad and diverse network to address the greatest threats to birds such as climate change, habitat loss and invasive species. We use solid science to inform management action and policy that helps coalesce a diverse network to solve these large challenges. With restoration interns, stewardship volunteers, land management professionals, ornithologists and dedicated members like you, we can save birds and improve the quality of life for the people of the Great Lakes region.
The Great Lakes region is home to the largest wetland ecosystem in the Midwest.

A key component of the Great Lakes initiative is the improvement of stopover habitat for migratory birds.
Audubon chapters create a culture of conservation in local communities through education and advocacy, focusing on the conservation of birds and conservation of important habitats.
Help secure the future for birds at risk from climate change, habitat loss and other threats. Your support will power our science, education, advocacy and on-the-ground conservation efforts.
