Youth Preserve and Protect the Resources of the Carriage Roads
This is a Notice of intent to partner with The Student Conservation Association under existing cooperative agreement.
No applications will be accepted.
Master Cooperative Agreement Number P15AC00031 was entered into by and between the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, (NPS), and The Student Conservation Association (SCA) to build the next generation of conservation leaders and inspire lifelong stewardship of our environment and communities by engaging young people in hands-on service to the land through service opportunities, outdoor skills, and leadership training.
