The overarching goal of this program is to assist parks’ Junior Rangers programs and to deliver and promote Junior Ranger programming to underserved, inner city and rural youth. Depending on the park’s need, interns might develop the first Junior Ranger program for a park or revise and complete a park’s outdated Junior Ranger program. Interns with a background in design, publication, education, child psychology, environmental studies/education, and history are recruited by SCA for this program. In addition, SCA interns assist in community outreach, and volunteer and event coordination for Junior Ranger programming. Interns are eligible to receive AmeriCorps education awards for their service. |
