Our Mission

SCI Is The World Leader In Protecting The Freedom To Hunt!

SCI is "First For Hunters"

SCI protects hunter's rights by actively lobbying on behalf of hunters at a state, provincial and federal level. We are committed to passing the hunting tradition on to our youth through educational programs, hunting experiences and wildlife conservation projects. The community of SCI hunters promotes strong family values and teaches young hunter's about hunting and the role hunters play in sustainable wildlife conservation. SCI chapters located around the world offer an excellent opportunity for hunters to get involved and make a difference.

SCI Foundation funds and manages worldwide programs dedicated to wildlife conservation, outdoor education and humanitarian services. Every member of SCI is a conservationist on many levels. From their membership dollars that go to support the SCI Foundation's global activities, to their local chapter projects to their support of federal and local game and fish agencies through purchase of licenses and sporting equipment, members of SCI are conservationists of the best kind.

Please consider joining the hunting organization that is First for Hunters and works tirelessly to protect the freedom to hunt. We are a non-profit organization that relies solely on our dedicated volunteers, membership fees, fund raising events and charitable contributions to carry out the battle to protect the freedom to hunt
