River Pathways
Through collaboration with the Phoenix Union High School District, Bureau of Land Management, US Forest Service, and Black Canyon Heritage Park, Audubon Arizona's River Pathways program takes urban teens out of their classrooms, gets them into the field, and transforms them into the next generation of conservation leaders. The program introduces students to Arizona’s amazing riparian areas and careers protecting them through hands-on classroom activities, field trips to the Rio Salado Audubon Center and off-site Important Bird Areas, and summer field internships working with Audubon biologists.
