Research Projects and Obtaining Information on the Amazon
ACT is positioned to answer questions specifically concerning the nature and content of our work with indigenous peoples of the Amazon. Please direct inquiries to info@amazonteam.org.
For visitors seeking general information on the Amazon rainforest, its species, and its peoples, we recommend that you consult the many resources available on the internet and in your public library.

Shamans and Apprentices Program / Visits to ACT's Field Sites
Our Shamans and Apprentices program is for the members of our partner tribes only. We work with and support shamans so that they are able to pass on their knowledge to the youth of their communities.
Visits to and participation in ACT’s activities in the field are limited to ACT partners. Please continue to visit our website to stay abreast of our efforts in the Amazon.

How can I verify ACT is an official 501(c)(3)organization?
According to federal law, all U.S. public non-profit organizations are required to register with the Internal Revenue Service. Our website provides our most recent IRS 990 form, which is our federally-mandated annual financial statement to the U.S. government, as well as recent audited financial statements. Also, you may wish to visit the leading charity evaluator Charity Navigator (www.charitynavigator.org) to read their four-star assessment of ACT's operation (their highest rating).

Request for Funding from ACT
The Amazon Conservation Team is not a funding organization and therefore does not accept solicitations.
