Organizations Filed Purposes: AUDUBON'S MISSION IS TO PROTECT BIRDS AND THE PLACES THEY NEED, TODAY AND TOMORROW.

CONSERVATION: AUDUBON'S GOAL IS TO PROTECT BIRDS DURING EVERY POINT OF THEIR LIFECYCLES THROUGHOUT THE AMERICAS. FIELD CONSERVATION PROGRAMS OPERATE AUDUBON'S 22 REGIONAL AND STATE OFFICES AND COMBINE LOCAL POLICY, SCIENCE AND ON THE GROUND CONSERVATION EFFORTS TO ADVANCE AUDUBON'S MISSION AND MEET TODAY'S UNPRECEDENTED ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES. THE FIELD CONSERVATION PROGRAMS ALSO CONNECT THE WORK OF AUDUBON CHAPTERS, NATURE CENTERS, VOLUNTEERS, PARTNERS, AND OTHER SUPPORTERS ALONG EACH OF THE FOUR MIGRATORY FLYWAYS. INTEGRATED, SHARED FLYWAY CONSERVATION GOALS ENHANCE OUR IMPACT, AND COORDINATED RESOURCES AND EXPERTISE INCREASES EFFICIENCY ACROSS THE NETWORK. THROUGH AUDUBONS MIGRATORY BIRD INITIATIVE (MBI) AND ITS CONSERVATION PLATFORM, AUDUBON WILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO AGGREGATE MIGRATORY BIRD DATA FROM ACROSS THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE, AND WILL BE ACCESSIBLE TO ALL, FROM THE RESEARCH AND CONSERVATION COMMUNITY TO THE PUBLIC. THIS DATA-WHICH INCLUDES GROUNDBREAKING WORK BY THE CORNELL LAB OF ORNITHOLOGY TO MODEL HEMISPHERE-WIDE BIRD ABUNDANCE FROM EBIRD OBSERVATIONS; BIRD TRACKING DATA FROM THE SMITHSONIAN MIGRATORY BIRD CENTER, BIRDS CANADA, AND HUNDREDS MORE RESEARCHERS; AND 100 YEARS OF BANDING DATA FROM THE USGS BIRD BANDING LAB-WILL HELP ANYONE CONNECT THEIR BACKYARD BIRDS TO THE FARAWAY PLACES THEY GO AS WELL AS THE THREATS THOSE AREAS FACE. AUDUBON WORKED TIRELESSLY IN 2020 TO DEFEND BEDROCK CONSERVATION LAWS THAT SUPPORT OUR CONSERVATION WORK, AND SUPPORTED NEW LEGISLATION TO ADVANCE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION. VIRGINIA, CALIFORNIA AND VERMONT EACH TOOK DECISIVE STEPS TO COMBAT THE WHITE HOUSES ASSAULT ON THE MIGRATORY BIRD TREATY ACT (MBTA). AUDUBON ALSO RECENTLY JOINED A BROAD COALITION OF JUSTICE AND ENVIRONMENTAL GROUPS TO SUE THE ADMINISTRATION OVER NEWLY INSTITUTED RULES THAT ELIMINATE ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEWS FOR MANY FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PROJECTS. THESE RULES ENDANGER WILDLIFE, NATURAL SPACES, PEOPLE LIVING IN LOW-INCOME COMMUNITIES, AND COMMUNITIES OF COLOR. THIS YEAR, AUDUBON AND OUR PARTNERS FILED TWO LAWSUITS TO DEFEND VULNERABLE AND CRITICALLY IMPORTANT HABITAT IN ALASKA FROM FEDERAL ATTACKS. THE ARCTIC NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE AND THE NATIONAL PETROLEUM RESERVE-ALASKA CONTAIN MILLIONS OF ACRES THAT ARE VITAL FOR BIRDS SURVIVAL. IN WASHINGTON, AUDUBON AND OUR PARTNERS HELPED SECURE THE BIPARTISAN PASSAGE OF THE GREAT AMERICAN OUTDOORS ACT, PROVIDING PERMANENT FUNDING FOR THE LAND AND WATER CONSERVATION FUND AND $1.9 BILLION ANNUALLY OVER FIVE YEARS TO ADDRESS DEFERRED MAINTENANCE PROJECTS FOR THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE, FOREST SERVICE, FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE, BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT, AND BUREAU OF INDIAN EDUCATION SCHOOLS. AUDUBON MAXIMIZES ITS CONSERVATION RESULTS BY FOCUSING ON FIVE STRATEGIES CRITICAL FOR BIRDS: 1. CLIMATE: AUDUBON SEEKS TO PROTECT THE PLACES BIRDS NEED IN A WARMING WORLD, AND ADVOCATE FOR SIGNIFICANT PUBLIC POLICY CHANGES BY TAPPING OUR UNPARALLELED NETWORK AND BIPARTISAN MEMBERSHIP TO SUPPORT SOLUTIONS AT THE STATE AND LOCAL LEVELS. IN FY20, AUDUBONS POLICY AND STATE LEADERSHIP WORKED WITH CHAPTER MEMBERS, COLLEGE STUDENTS, AND VOLUNTEERS ACROSS OUR NETWORK TO SECURE IMPORTANT LEGISLATIVE VICTORIES TO PROMOTE CLEAN ENERGY. THE LANDMARK VIRGINIA CLEAN ECONOMY ACT-A FIRST FOR THE SOUTHEAST -NOT ONLY HELPS PROTECTS BIRDS AND THEIR HABITATS, BUT ALSO PROVIDES OPPORTUNITIES FOR ECONOMIC GROWTH THROUGH CLEAN ENERGY. A REPORT BY AUDUBON SOUTH CAROLINA FOUND THAT, THANKS IN PART TO THE PASSAGE OF THE STATES ENERGY FREEDOM ACT IN 2019, SOUTH CAROLINAS RAPIDLY EXPANDING SOLAR INDUSTRY NOW HAS A $1.5 BILLION IMPACT ON THE STATES ECONOMY AND SUPPORTS 7,250 JOBS. THIS IS IN ADDITION TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS OF CLEANER ENERGY. IN LOUISIANA, GOVERNOR JOHN BEL EDWARDS SIGNED A PAIR OF EXECUTIVE ORDERS. THE FIRST ESTABLISHED A CLIMATE INITIATIVES TASK FORCE TO DEVELOP RECOMMENDATIONS FOR DRASTICALLY REDUCING CARBON EMISSIONS, AND THE SECOND CREATED THE POSITION OF CHIEF RESILIENCE OFFICER TO OVERSEE THE PROTECTION OF THE STATES COASTS. AT THE CITY LEVEL, NEW ORLEANS ADOPTED A RENEWABLE AND CLEAN PORTFOLIO STANDARD, WHICH MANDATES A ZERO-CARBON ENERGY PORTFOLIO BY 2050. IN ARKANSAS, THE ARKANSAS PUBLIC COMMISSION FINALIZED A RULING THAT RETAINS THE FULL CREDIT FOR ALL RESIDENTIAL AND BUSINESS CUSTOMERS WITH NET-METERED SOLAR INSTALLATIONS THROUGH THE END OF 2022. AUDUBONS SCIENCE TEAM WORKED THROUGHOUT FY19 TO BUILD A NEW STUDY ON THE EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON BIRDS AND PEOPLE. THE CONCLUSION OF THAT WORK, RELEASED IN OCTOBER 2019, SHOWS THAT TWO-THIRDS OF BIRD SPECIES IN NORTH AMERICA ARE AT RISK OF EXTINCTION FROM CLIMATE CHANGE IF WE DO NOT ACT QUICKLY. AUDUBON IS WORKING ON SOLUTIONS TO COUNTERACT THE EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE AND ACHIEVE NET-ZERO EMISSIONS BY 2050 BY DRAMATICALLY REDUCING EMISSIONS OF GREENHOUSE GASES LIKE CARBON DIOXIDE, REMOVE EXCESS BUILT UP OF BURNING FOSSIL FUELS, AND OTHER INITIATIVES, INCLUDING MAINTAINING HEALTHY FORESTS OR SUPPORTING SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURAL PRACTICES. IN FY20, CLIMATE CHANGE BECAME A UNIFYING ISSUE FOR YOUNG PEOPLE ACROSS THE POLITICAL SPECTRUM. DURING THE SUMMER, AUDUBONS INAUGURAL YOUTH ENVIRONMENTAL SUMMIT (YES) CREATED A NEW FORUM FOR A BIPARTISAN GROUP OF YOUNG CLIMATE ADVOCATES, ATTRACTING REGISTRANTS FROM 36 STATES. CO-HOSTED WITH THE AMERICAN CONSERVATION COALITION CAMPUS-AN ORGANIZATION OF YOUNG CONSERVATIVES FIGHTING FOR CLIMATE SOLUTIONS-YES 2020 OFFERRED PARTICIPANTS THE CHANCE TO JOIN CONVERSATIONS WITH RENOWNED SCIENTISTS, LEADING CLIMATE ACTIVISTS, AND CONGRESSIONAL MEMBERS AT THE FOREFRONT OF BIPARTISAN CLIMATE ACTION. 2. COASTS: AUDUBON AND ITS PARTNERS IN LATIN AMERICA BUILD RESILIENT COASTLINES TO STRENGTHEN POPULATIONS OF SHOREBIRDS AND COASTAL COMMUNITIES AND PRESERVE CRITICAL BREEDING, STOPOVER AND WINTERING SITES IN VITAL HABITATS ALONG THE COASTS OF THE AMERICAS. AUDUBON AND ITS CHAPTERS WORK IN 1,090 COASTAL SITES OVER MORE THAN 100,000 MILES FOR THE BENEFIT OF SHOREBIRDS. FY20 MARKS THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE MOST DEVASTATING OIL SPILL EVER TO OCCUR IN AMERICAN WATERS. AUDUBON HELPED COORDINATE THE IMMEDIATE EMERGENCY RESPONSE TO THE DEEPWATER HORIZON CATASTROPHE, AND SINCE THEN HAS DEVELOPED A COMPREHENSIVE ROADMAP FOR NEARLY $2 BILLION OF CONSERVATION PROJECTS TO REPAIR AND RESTORE THE GULF OF MEXICO. AUDUBON CONTINUES TO DEFEND THE MIGRATORY BIRD TREATY ACT. IN THE BAY OF PANAMAS MANGROVES, AUDUBON IS CREATING A MODEL FOR GREEN COASTAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND CARBON STORAGE. BY ENHANCING ECONOMIC INCENTIVES FOR CARBON SEQUESTRATION IN THE MANGROVES-KNOWN AS "BLUE CARBON"-AND SECURING GOVERNMENT RECOGNITION AS A NATIONAL CLIMATE SOLUTION, AUDUBON WILL CHART A SUSTAINABLE AND RESILIENT COURSE FORWARD. REFLECTING YEARS OF AUDUBON PLANNING, COORDINATION, AND ADVOCACY AT THE GRASSROOTS, CHAPTER, STATE, AND FEDERAL LEVELS, THIS SUMMER AUDUBON ACHIEVED A MAJOR VICTORY FOR SEABIRDS IN A DECISION BY THE ATLANTIC STATES MARINE FISHERIES COMMISSION. THE COMMISSION UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED AN APPROACH ENSURING THE POPULATION OF ATLANTIC MENHADEN-AN ESSENTIAL FORAGE FISH THAT IS AT THE CORE OF THE MARINE ECOSYSTEM-WILL NEVER DROP TO A LEVEL THAT PUTS BIRDS AND OTHER WILDLIFE AT RISK. THIS MEANS MORE MENHADEN AND HEALTHIER MARINE LIFE FROM MAINE TO FLORIDA, WHILE ALLOWING COMMERCIAL FISHING TO CONTINUE. IN DECEMBER, AUDUBON LED THE EFFORT TO PASS H.R. 5787 TO ADD MORE THAN 18,000 ACRES TO THE COASTAL BARRIER RESOURCES SYSTEM. AUDUBON CONTINUES OUR WORK TO SAFEGUARD THE ARCTIC REFUGE, A VITAL NURSERY TO MILLIONS OF BIRDS FROM ALL 50 STATES, FROM DESTRUCTIVE OIL AND GAS DEVELOPMENT. AUDUBON HAS WORKED WITH OTHER CONSERVATION GROUPS AND OTHERS TO ANALYZE THE BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENTS ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STUDY, WHILE CONTINUING TO ADVOCATE WITH MEMBERS IN BOTH THE U.S. SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TO INTRODUCE AND PASS LEGISLATION TO PROTECT THE REGION. 3. WATER: AUDUBON ADVOCATES FOR SUSTAINABLE WATER-USE POLICIES, ENGAGING OUR NETWORK AND OUR POLICY EXPERTISE TO INFLUENCE WATER MANAGEMENT DECISIONS THAT BALANCE THE NEEDS OF BIRDS, PEOPLE AND ECONOMIES IN TARGETED RIVERS, LAKES, AND DELTAS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. AUDUBON USES ROBUST DATA TO UNDERSTAND THE TRADE-OFFS RESULTING FROM VARIOUS WATER POLICIES ON ECOSYSTEM HEALTH AND ECONOMIES. BY INVOLVING OUR TECHNICAL EXPERTS AND NETWORK, WE ARE ENHANCING THE FUNCTIONALITY OF HABITATS ACROSS PRIORITY LANDSCAPES. IN FY20, AUDUBON WORKED ALONGSIDE KEY STAKEHOLDERS TO DEVELOP SOLUTIONS TO INCREASE UTAHS FLEXIBILITY IN MANAGING WATER RESOURCES FOR AGRICULTURAL, MUNICIPAL, AND ENVIRONMENTAL NEEDS. THREE IMPORTANT BILLS WERE PASSED: THE WATER BANKING ACT, THE SPLIT-SEASON USE, AND THE WATERSHED COUNCIL ACT. IN COLORADO, AFTER A MULTI-YEAR, MULTI-STAKEHOLDER EFFORT FROM AUDUBON AND OTHERS, A BILL EXPANDING THE COLORADO WATER CONSERVATION BOARD SHORT-TERM WATER LOAN PROGRAM PASSED. IN FLORIDA, THE NETWORK HELPED SECURE RECORD-HIGH EVERGLADES APPROPRIATIONS OF MORE THAN $600 MILLION AT BOTH THE S

NATIONAL CONSERVATION PROGRAMS FOCUS AND ALIGN AUDUBON'S UNPARALLELED NETWORK TO MEET TODAY'S UNPRECEDENTED ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES. NATIONAL CONSERVATION PROVIDES STRATEGY, EXPERTISE AND LEADERSHIP FOR AUDUBON'S CONSERVATION WORK AND ENSURES EFFORTS ARE INTEGRATED FOR MAXIMUM EFFECTIVENESS. NATIONAL PROGRAMS INCLUDE: - Conservation Leadership produces conservation strategies and leadership to address the needs of birds and the habitats they rely on across the Americas. National conservation leadership includes teams dedicated to each of the five strategies critical for birds: Climate, Coasts, Water, Working Lands, and Bird-Friendly Communities. In addition, the conservation leadership oversees Audubons national policy, science and international teams. These programs are responsible for overseeing and coordinating the advancement of the conservation strategies and priorities, working with state offices, chapters, centers and other partners. Audubon has created an integrated tool to track progress toward our conservation goals for our five strategies. - NETWORK INCREASES THE CAPACITY, DIVERSITY, CONNECTEDNESS AND EFFECTIVENESS OF AUDUBON'S grassroots. WORKING WITH AUDUBON STAFF IN STATE OFFICES AND CENTERS, AND OUR 452 INDEPENDENT CHAPTERS, NETWORK DEVELOPS TOOLS AND PROGRAMS THAT ADVANCE OUR SHARED CONSERVATION PRIORITIES. THE GOAL IS TO BRING AUDUBON'S CONSERVATION MISSION TO LIFE IN COMMUNITIES THROUGH CREATIVE AND RELEVANT LOCAL ACTION THAT ACHIEVES LASTING OUTCOMES AND BUILDS DURABLE PUBLIC SUPPORT FOR BIRDS AND CONSERVATION. AUDUBON NATURE CENTERS ARE ONE OF THE PRINCIPLE ELEMENTS OF AUDUBON'S NETWORK REACHING A MILLION VISITORS EACH YEAR. - SCIENCE ENGAGES IN RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS TO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR CONSERVATION STRATEGIES, AND BUILD OUR AUTHORITY AS A SCIENCE-LED LEADER. THE SCIENCE PROGRAM ESTABLISHES COMMON METRICS TO TRACK PROGRESS ACROSS INITIATIVES AND FLYWAYS, INCLUDING BIOLOGICAL RESPONSE OF SPECIES, AND ACRES OF HABITAT RESTORED, PROTECTED OR MANAGED. IT CONDUCTS COMMUNITY SCIENCE BIRD MONITORING AND DATA COLLECTION THROUGH THE CHRISTMAS BIRD COUNT AND GREAT BACKYARD BIRD COUNT, AND THE CLIMATE WATCH PROGRAM, TO GAIN A UNIQUE VIEW ON BIRD TRENDS ACROSS THE HEMISPHERE TO IDENTIFY AND UNDERSTAND THREATS LIKE CLIMATE cHANGE. - POLICY USES A solutions-oriented APPROACH TO ENVIRONMENTAL ADVOCACY THAT HAS EARNED A REPUTATION AS A TRUSTED AND INFLUENTIAL VOICE. WE COMBINE GRASSROOTS ORGANIZING, ADVOCACY AND COMMUNICATION TO SUPPORT LARGE STATE AND MULTI-STATE EFFORTS SUCH AS: THE RESTORATION OF LARGE ICONIC ECOSYSTEMS, LIKE THE ARCTIC SLOPE IN ALASKA, THE WETLANDS OF THE EVERGLADES, AND THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER DELTA; PROTECTION OF 2,756 IMPORTANT BIRD AREAS COVERING APPROXIMATELY 430 MILLION ACRES OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE LANDS; AND SAFEGUARDING COMMON SENSE LAWS LIKE THE CLEAN AIR ACT, CLEAN WATER ACT, ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT AND THE NEOTROPICAL MIGRATORY BIRD CONSERVATION ACT. - MARKETING & ENGAGEMENT BUILDS THE SIZE AND EFFECTIVENESS OF AUDUBON'S NETWORK OF SUPPORTERS AND VOLUNTEERS SO THAT MORE PEOPLE TAKE ACTION FOR BIRDS AND THE ENVIRONMENT. WE REACH SUPPORTERS THROUGH A VARIETY OF CHANNELS INCLUDING WWW.AUDUBON.ORG, SOCIAL MEDIA, EMAIL MARKETING, AND AUDUBON MAGAZINE, WHICH REACHES APPROXIMATELY 1 MILLION READERS. SINCE APRIL 2015, AUDUBON HAS OWNED AND OPERATED A DIGITIAL APP CALLED THE AUDUBON BIRD GUIDE. THE GUIDE HAS BEEN DOWNLOADED MORE THAN 1 MILLION TIMES, AND ADVANCE AUDUBON'S MISSION OF EDUCATING PEOPLE ABOUT BIRDS. MARKETING ALSO WORKS WITH CORPORATE PARTNERS LIKE ALLBIRDS, A SUSTAINABLE SHOE BRAND, TO SPREAD AWARENESS THROUGH A LIMITED-EDITION COLLECTION OF SNEAKERS INSPIRED BY FIVE CLIMATE-AFFECTED BIRDS. SIMILARLY, AUDUBON TEAMS WITH CANON TO HOST "BIRDS IN FOCUS" EVENTS TO ENGAGE NEW AUDIENCES AND GET MORE PEOPLE INVESTED IN PROTECTING BIRDS AND THE PLACES THEY NEED. - HEMISPHERIC STRATEGY WORKS THROUGH Audubons office in Colombia and with partner organizations in Latin America to deliver concrete, on the ground actions that address critical threats to Audubons priority bird species. Audubon provides science, technical expertise, policy support and capacity development tools to build effective conservation programs to reverse declines in bird populations, protect habitat and engage local communities. In addition to Colombia, Audubon works in Bahamas, Belize, Chile, Mexico and Panama. - EQUITY, DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION IS A CORE VALUE AND STRATEGIC IMPERATIVE FOR AUDUBON. THE ENVIRONMENTAL MOVEMENT NEEDS THE FULL BREADTH OF TALENT, ENERGY, AND PERSPECTIVE REPRESENTED IN THE FULL DIVERSITY OF AMERICA. ACHIEVING OUR CONSERVATION GOALS REQUIRES AUTHENTIC REPRESENTATION OF ALL THE COMMUNITIES WE WORK IN TO BUILD A BRIGHTER FUTURE FOR BIRDS AND PEOPLE. AUDUBON'S DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION EFFORTS WILL BROADEN OUR NETWORK OF SUPPORTERS AND INCREASE OUR STAFF DIVERSITY, INSPIRING MORE PEOPLE TO WORK AND CONSERVE MORE HABITATS. THIS GOAL IS A CORE PART OF OUR WORK, AND IS SHARED BY AUDUBONS BOARD, ITS STAFF, CHAPTERS AND MEMBERS. - AUDUBON IS DEDICATED TO BUILDING THE NEXT GENERATION OF CONSERVATION LEADERS THROUGH CAREER PIPELINE INITIATIVES FOCUSED ON THE FUTURE OF A DIVERSE CONSERVATION MOVEMENT. AUDUBON FELLOWS AND APPRENTICES ARE LEADERS-IN-TRAINING IN THE DISCIPLINES OF ENVIRONMENTAL COMMUNICATIONS, CONSERVATION EDUCATION, FIELD ORGANIZING, FIELD BIOLOGY, PUBLIC POLICY, GEOSPATIAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS, AND MUCH MORE: 1. WALKER COMMUNICATIONS FELLOWSHIP: THIS INNOVATIVE VEHICLE ENLISTS YOUNG WRITERS, VIDEOGRAPHERS, AND SOCIAL MEDIA EXPERTS TO CONVEY AUDUBON'S WORK TO THEIR PEERS. THE PROJECT OFFERS FELLOWS LEADERSHIP TRAINING AND OPPORTUNITIES, WHILE AUDUBON LEARNS FROM THEM HOW TO CONNECT WITH A YOUNGER, MORE DIVERSE CONSTITUENCY. 2. THE MACKENZIE FELLOWSHIP, LAUNCHED IN 2018, FOCUSES ON BUILDING NATURE-BASED LEADERSHIP SKILLS TO CONNECT YOUNG PEOPLE FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS TO CONSERVATION. THE FELLOWS ARE BASED IN AUDUBON NATURE CENTERS IN ARIZONA AND TEXAS, AND ARE BEING TRAINED IN AUDUBON CONSERVATION EDUCATION METHODS THAT PROVIDE LIFE-CHANGING OUTDOOR EXPERIENCES TO HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS. 3. DANGERMOND FELLOWS ARE BEING TRAINED FOR LEADERSHIP ROLES IN CONSERVATION SCIENCE, PUBLIC POLICY, AND DIGITAL MAPPING CAREERS. THEY BUILD GEOSPATIAL MAPPING TOOLS THAT HELP OUR SCIENTISTS AND POLICY EXPERTS VISUALIZE AND ADVOCATE FOR SOLUTIONS THAT MEET COMMUNITY PRIORITIES AND PROTECT BIRDS AND THE PLACES THEY NEED AT THE SAME TIME. 4. THE SCHNEIDER FELLOWSHIP HELPS AUDUBON CARRY OUT ITS CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY AND ADVOCACY WORK AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL. DURING THEIR TENURE AT AUDUBON, THE FELLOWS WORK DIRECTLY WITH AUDUBON'S D.C.-BASED POLICY EXPERTS TO SUPPORT INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL EFFORTS TO DEVELOP AND ADVANCE POLICY AND LEGISLATIVE SOLUTIONS TO ADDRESS A CHANGING CLIMATE. 5. THE FUND II APPRENTICESHIP, ESTABLISHED WITH A GRANT FROM ROBERT F. SMITHS FUND II FOUNDATION, IS A YEAR-LONG APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM FOR SEVEN EARLY-CAREER LEADERS IN POLICY, SCIENCE, GRASSROOTS, COMMUNITY OUTREACH, CORPORATE PARTNERSHIPS, AND COMMUNICATIONS. OUR GOAL IS TO PROVIDE CONCRETE SKILL-BUILDING OPPORTUNITIES THAT LEAD TO PERMANENT JOBS IN THE CONSERVATION MOVEMENT. AUDUBON IS DEDICATED TO PROVIDING A WORK ENVIRONMENT THAT PRIORITIZES FAIRNESS AND RESPECT, AND A WORKPLACE FREE OF ANY KIND OF DISCRIMINATION BASED ON RACE, COLOR, RELIGION, SEX, AGE, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, GENDER IDENTITY AND EXPRESSION, DISABILITY, NATIONAL OR ETHNIC ORIGIN, POLITICS OR VETERAN STATUS.
