Description

Through this Task Agreement, the partners will create, fill, administer, and support a range of internships and fellowships in support of projects and locations where the NPS Rivers, Trails, and Conservation Assistance (⿿RTCA⿝) program and other NPS programs are providing technical assistance to a range of partners. Each such position will provide high-quality exposure to the kinds of professional work performed by NPS to benefit local communities, and will include efforts to engage young people in projects that support community-led natural resource conservation and outdoor recreation projects.
