Indiana Region 6 - Marion County

Indianapolis, IN

County

Population: 987602

Summary

Region 6 includes: Marion County. In March 2026, Earth Charter Indiana and the Indiana Wildlife Federation launched the Hoosier Habitat Challenge. The goal is to certify multi-county regions and communities across the entire state of Indiana in the National Wildlife Federation’s Community Wildlife Habitat program. Once certified, this Statewide Network of Community Wildlife Habitats will be the first of its kind in the United States, reaching all corners of Indiana. * When a community team registers, if it inherits tons of existing habitat points, it needs to reach 10% new habitats while as a team. So the Certification Habitat Points Goal is 1094 (not 750).
