Major Activities

Activity 2

Education and Outreach: The education and outreach component of Pheasants Forever is carried out through the No Child Left Indoors(R) Initiative and the Pheasants Forever magazine, The Journal of Upland Conservation (published five times a year) and the Quail Forever magazine, The Journal of Quail Conservation (published four times a year) as well as newsletters that go out to educators and chapter leaders. Youth programs and events are part of the No Child Left Indoors(R) Initiative along with workshops, educational materials and resources. More than 100,000 magazines are mailed to members of Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever and contain information pertaining to the need for wildlife habitat development and restoration, the benefits of water and soil conservation, current issues and policies affecting conservation and the tradition of hunting, chapter activities and other special features. The No Child Left Indoors(R) Initiative engages PF and QF chapters in community activities that connect youth and their families to the outdoors. Chapters host more than 1,000 events per year that include hunter safety classes, youth mentor hunts, summer camps, shooting programs, outdoor field days and habitat projects. Youth 17 or younger can become Ringnecks and/or Whistler members. Almost 16,000 youth members receive the youth magazine Upland Tales four times a year. Youth leadership is encouraged at the local level and through state youth leadership councils and a National Youth Leadership Council comprised of 20 active young leaders from across the country. Educational brochures also are available on subjects such as habitat and pheasant population dynamic.
