Growing The Urban Wildlife Refuge Program
The National Wildlife Refuge Association’s Urban Wildlife Refuge Program grew by leaps and bounds throughout 2021, despite the ongoing pandemic and reduction in outdoor events and programs. After pivoting to remote work and virtual programs in 2020, the seeds were planted to fund and accelerate ambitious projects in and around Los Angeles and nationally.
