The Illinois Audubon Society is the oldest non-profit, independent conservation organization in Illinois, dedicated to preserving and protecting the state's natural habitats and wildlife. Through their land protection programs, they acquire and safeguard open spaces, ensuring the preservation of native plants and the groundwater recharge basin. Members receive quarterly issues of the Illinois Audubon magazine, featuring articles on birding, conservation issues, and updates on the society's sanctuaries.
The society offers various programs, including Bird and Butterfly Sanctuary Certification and Adventures Field Trips, providing opportunities for individuals to learn more about birds and nature. They also play a vital role in pre-acquiring land for state and federal government, using dedicated funds for land acquisition, thus contributing to the preservation of Illinois' open spaces. With a commitment to environmental conservation, the Illinois Audubon Society continues to protect and promote the state's natural heritage.
