The Center for Biological Diversity combines conservation biology with litigation, policy advocacy, and an innovative strategic vision to secure a future for animals and plants hovering on the brink of extinction, for the wilderness they need to survive, and by extension for the spiritual welfare of generations to come.

Based in Tucson, Arizona, the Center is a not for profit membership organization supported by over 35,000 people. The Center has offices and staff in Arizona, California, New Mexico, Oregon, Illinois and Washington, D.C.
