Natural History Wanderings

Applications for the Community Volunteer Ambassador (CVA) program are open! The CVA program is a partnership between the National Park Service and Conservation Legacy, and hires ambassadors at more than 50 national park sites. For one service year, the CVA (an intern paid a stipend) is committed to creating meaningful volunteer experiences that engage volunteers in environmental stewardship. Here is what our current CVA, Tori, has to say about her experience.

“Growing up with limited exposure to national parks and accessible public lands, my CVA experience has taught me that I love being a steward for my public lands. The CVA program and supervisors have constantly supported my professional interests and development. Working alongside volunteers across various projects throughout the parks always leaves me inspired and motivated to continue the good work. Before being a CVA, I struggled to see myself in the National Park Service, but now I can’t imagine myself anywhere else, because representation matters!”
