This is an AmeriCorps national service position. It is contingent on funding and open until filled. The Center for Natural Lands Management (CNLM) focuses on many parts of conservation. We advance conservation through education, restoring and stewarding habitat, and collaborating with partners. We also own and manage protected lands. Along the southern edge of Puget Sound lies a landscape unusual in the Pacific Northwest. A mix of mountains, forest, grasslands, and wetlands form a mosaic that supports a rich array of species. Birds, mammals, flowers, and butterflies-some of which are found nowhere else on Earth-live here. These prairies are now one of the rarest habitats in the U.S. Only 1-3% of the original native prairie remains. CNLM works with a mix of federal, state, local and non-profit partners to conserve and restore the habitat of these prairies. The member will work with our preserve manager to carry out preservation activities and engage volunteers in the effort. Monthly stipend amount: $2,276.
