The New Jersey Audubon Society fosters environmental awareness and a conservation ethic; protects New Jersey’s birds, animals, and plants, especially endangered and threatened species, and promotes the preservation of New Jersey’s valuable natural habitats. NJAS is a privately supported, not-for-profit, statewide membership organization. Founded in 1897 and one of the oldest independent Audubon societies, NJAS has no connection with the National Audubon Society.
