The Raptor Trust Summer Scholars Program

Founded in 1983 as a tax-exempt 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization, The Raptor Trust is a wild bird rehabilitation center in northern NJ. Each year from mid-May through August we receive hundreds of injured, orphaned, or displaced nestling and fledgling songbirds found by citizens. The Raptor Trust sees this time as a perfect opportunity to provide experience and education to students who wish to learn about wildlife care and rehabilitation.

The 2024 Summer Scholars application is now closed. Please check back next year for more opportunities.
