The Juneau Raptor Center (JRC) is a volunteer, non-profit organization serving Southeast Alaska since 1987. JRC provides medical care to over 150 sick and injured raptors and other birds each year. JRC also delivers educational programs, featuring non-releasable birds, to local and regional groups, teaching audiences of all ages the basics of conservation.
We would like to congratulate Amber Rounds-McPherson from Thunder Mountain High School for winning the 2015 Juneau Raptor Center Logo Contest!
This contest was only for our local high school students grades 9-12. It was an extremely difficult decision to make as we had several talented students partake in this event.
Thanks to everyone who participated and congrats Amber!
Adopt- A Raptor Program
Adopting a JRC Education Bird allows you to directly contribute money used to feed, house and provide medical support for that bird. Education birds are a vital part of the JRC’s mission and your support allows us to reach more people.
