This federal Cooperative Agreement award from the National Park Service (CFDA 15.931 - Youth and Veteran Organizations Conservation Activities) provides $3,154,430.00 to Conservation Legacy to implement a program called the "Scientists in Parks (SIP)" starting in Summer 2025. The SIP program will engage approximately 50 college students, recent graduates, and early career professionals in 12- to 52-week paid internships focused on applying science, resource management principles, and interpretation techniques to address natural resource stewardship needs in national parks. Key activities will include natural and cultural resource conservation, education, volunteer service, and interpretation projects on Department of the Interior lands. As a sub-awardee, Conservation Legacy has also partnered with other non-profit organizations, academic institutions, and government agencies to provide workforce development, training, and hands-on conservation experience to youth and veterans on public lands.
