Eagle Eye Institute

Eagle Eye is a nonprofit creating opportunities for youth from urban communities to learn about, connect with, and be inspired to protect the natural world.

We’re proud to share the story of an Eagle Eye alum that vividly illustrates the power of time in nature.

We invite you to listen to Sabiha’s story, as she explains how experiential learning opportunities rooted her in a connection to nature & galvanized a career path. 🦅🌿
