Audubon is lucky to have beautiful Patterson Park as our outdoor "classroom," and our bilingual education team is dedicated to helping migratory birds that rely on this urban oasis as a place to rest and refuel during their long journeys.

PPAC offers science-based programs to schools and hosts volunteer opportunities for community, corporate, and student groups. Individual volunteers assist on Audubon-led, educational adventures and improve and expand our bird-friendly community gardens in Patterson Park and beyond.

A vital part of our team, volunteers help us accomplish the mission and goals of Patterson Park Audubon Center and National Audubon Society. Your time, talent, knowledge, and skills enhance our program delivery. No matter your age, ability, or time commitment, your efforts will increase PPAC's efficiency and help meet the needs of birds and our community. PPAC provides a variety of opportunities that involve volunteers in meaningful service to promote urban conservation, enhance the public image of Audubon, and provide an environment for a volunteer to maximize their skills and interests.
