Position Summary:
Audubon Florida's Conservation Leadership Initiative is a co-mentorship program that connects college students to Audubon's grassroots leaders, conservation projects, and professional development opportunities within the Audubon Florida network. This program aims to bridge the gap between our current Audubon leaders and the next generation of young conservationists. The program also has a large interest in introducing people of underrepresented communities to the Audubon network. Each fall, the program accepts 25 college students, providing learning and networking opportunities throughout the academic year. Each spring, the program hosts a series of additional single-day events across Florida to connect with a broader audience of college students with environmental interests.
