Impact of Education & Community Outreach
On any given day, Mass Audubon educators may be found in any number of places: in a local school classroom showing students Monarch caterpillars preparing for metamorphosis; leading a group of preschoolers on a forest walk at one of our Nature Preschools; or introducing campers to a special Animal Ambassador, such as a Red-tailed Hawk, at our summer camps.
Mass Audubon is the largest statewide provider of environmental education for youth, families, and adults. Programs take place at our sanctuaries as well as in communities and schools across the state.
