About Endangered Species Coalition
The Endangered Species Coalition leads the grassroots movement to protect threatened and endangered species and to defend the Endangered Species Act. We boldly confront threats to wildlife and wild places. We protect and restore biodiversity and seek to ensure its benefits are shared equitably by all communities. What sets ESC apart is that we are a force of genuine collaboration, long-term movement building, and innovation. We are a convener of more than 400 conservation, community, humane, science, faith, sporting, and other groups, along with more than 600,000 individuals. We use our decades of expertise to empower, strategically coordinate, and lift up those member groups and voices around the common goal of saving species. We believe that power is an abundant resource that grows as it is shared; by empowering other organizations and individuals, we empower ourselves and build a true movement for biodiversity justice.
