REMINDER, applications for the 
summer Youth Conservation Corps (#YCC) are open now and close at various times depending on the park location! While some closed in March, many others will still be open through April 15, and in some cases through the end of April or May. Check with the park of interest for details on their specific program.The YCC program gives youth ages 15-18 the opportunity to take an active role in protecting the natural, cultural, and historical resources of our 
national parks. You could work on a variety of projects depending on the park’s needs, including building trails, maintaining fences, cleaning up campgrounds, improving wildlife habitat, environmental education planning and teaching, stream restoration, historic building preservation, interpretation, cultural resources, and more! Your work may not be just outside, though we know getting outside in our parks has many health benefits. There are 40+ national park sites to choose from. So are you ready to learn and have fun while getting paid to work in our parks this summer?
