Palouse Land Trust and Idaho Firewise are seeking applicants for two 900-hour AmeriCorps
members to advance opportunities to engage and educate the broader community about the
importance of land conservation, ecosystem stewardship, wildfire prevention, and community
recreational access. We are seeking enthusiastic individuals who are eager to learn new skills
and mentor under natural resource professionals in the nonprofit conservation sector.
Applicants should have strong verbal and written communication skills, be organized and selfmotivated, enthusiastically support team members and volunteers, hold a strong commitment
to the missions of these organizations, and be comfortable working in the outdoors in all
seasons.
Members will assist with community engagement, volunteer events, land stewardship, and
deliver locally relevant conservation education. They will have the opportunity to work in the
beautiful and unique Palouse bioregion and a significant portion of member duties will be
conducted outside. Members will work alongside experienced staff and independently in
collaboration with local schools, organizations, landowners, and volunteers. Persons selected
will be working collaboratively across two non-profit conservation organizations, but will have
one primary appointment, depending on candidate interest and organizational needs. Member
efforts will empower a new generation of conservation leaders and contribute to measurable
gains in wildfire resiliency, community engagement in conservation, and recreational access for
all.
