Work with youth to build skills and self-confidence to lead walks, talks and tours - first in Seward Park, then in neighborhoods for new audiences (that Audubon traditionally has not served in the past) and with partner groups. Grow the program with introductions to professional guides and experiences in outlying wild areas. Think about guiding as a profession and grow into building business skills.

A part of the Texas Women in Conservation Program, Audubon's Conservation Leaders Program for Young Women (ACL) is an exciting partnership between schools in the Young Women's Preparatory Network and Audubon State staff, Texas Centers, and local Audubon Chapters.

Audubon's work, both nationally and in Texas, is known to be focused on protecting birds, and the places they need to survive. In order to meet these goals, we approach our work from five angles; Climate Change, Water, Coasts, Working Lands, and Bird-friendly Communities. In the 2020-2021 school year, and each year of ACL going forward, we will tackle the science, conservation, and the broad career options within these strategies.

Traditionally, students meet with leading female scientists, explore Texas's diverse ecosystems, and learn about career paths within the student's hometowns. Due to COVID-19, and necessary safety protocols, we will modify the first part of the 2020-2021 school year, offering multiple Zoom sessions to dig into the science and actions needed to tackle Climate Change. We will resume in person fieldtrips in the spring, provided health and safety regulations can be met.

Both in-person and virtual programs will help students develop leadership and communication expertise that will help them to become leaders in their academic and personal careers once they complete the program.

Audubon is offering the program in Dallas, San Antonio, Houston, and new this year, Austin is joining the network of participants! Program costs and materials are 100% subsidized by Audubon's generous donors and grants. In return, participants are expected to bring sturdy shoes, come appropriately dressed, and bring a positive, enthusiastic attitude to each experience, especially the intensive camp portion .

Applications for the 20-21 school year have closed. Applicants will be notified shortly about acceptance into the program.

Work with students to develop system for logging bird kills in downtown buildings during migration. They would be in charge of outreach to building managers, site visits, database creation, possible app development, presentations to DSA and others, and integration with other national initiatives of this sort. Then they would partner to advocate for a Lights Out campaign in Seattle.

Build on neighborhood organizations and POC-led outdoor groups to support or develop BOC clubs (Birders of Color). Tie in to work with youth organizations to develop local youth ambassadors. Create Fellowship green job opportunity that connects college students to do conservation science with Trina, environmental education with Joey et al, and climate policy work with Deborah.  Maybe even work in cultural history Smart Walks at Seward Park.
