Caribbean TRI-island equity through conservation youth outreach & leadership development project

The National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), a civilian agency, awarded a $475,000 cooperative agreement to Amps International, LLC on February 23, 2024 to implement the "Caribbean Tri-Island Equity Through Conservation Youth Outreach & Leadership Development Project" under the Soil and Water Conservation program (CFDA 10.902). This project aims to provide conservation technical assistance, education, outreach, and implementation of soil and water conservation practices in the Caribbean region through March 2025. Amps International, a minority-owned, veteran-owned, and service-disabled veteran-owned limited liability company, specializes in delivering technical assistance, outreach programs, and conservation planning services, particularly focusing on soil and water conservation initiatives. This cooperative agreement builds upon Amps International's prior experience administering the "Virgin Islands Shaping Equity" project funded by the NRCS from August 2022 to August 2023.
