The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) awarded a $144,189 Cooperative Agreement under the Experienced Services Program (CFDA 15.682) to National Experienced Workforce Solutions, Inc.

The mentor will work with the Fellows and USFWS staff to incorporate climate change considerations into existing and planned Integrated Natural Resource Management Plans (INRMPs) for U.S. Army installations across the United States. This project aims to leverage the expertise of experienced professionals to assist federal agencies in achieving their environmental management and climate resilience goals.
