High Desert Conservation Corps- AmeriCorps Con. Team Leader
 
 
 
This position is a 47 week, 1700-hour, full-time, nonresidential service position that has a leadership, but not supervisory role on the crew. The CTL will gain hands on experience in conservation projects and the delivery of conservation-related training. The CTL will be trained how to successfully plan and facilitate workshops, training sessions, and conservation curriculum (in both field and classroom environments). This position also helps educate members about the “why” behind each project. CTLs are asked to research and present relevant information that will better explain the reasoning and goals of each project so that members will understand and recognize the importance of their efforts. Furthermore, the CTL will support member development by planning career exploration events and tours, and bring in relevant guest presenters. The CTL will also foster greater inclusion and belonging among program participants by leading team-building activities and regular Member Advisory Council (MAC) meetings. The CTL will provide these services across HOC conservation programs so that youth can gain more peer-level support and training. The position serves outside on public lands about 75% of the time, roughly 3-4 days per week on average. While on crew, the CTL will serve alongside members and gain technical experience in conservation projects. Days not serving on projects will be spent developing relevant trainings and member-centered activities. Training will be provided to develop the skills necessary for this position. The position is ideal for people with previous conservation corps experience or those with natural resources, outdoor leadership, and or environmental education backgrounds/degrees. A desire to lead, educate, and support the growth of others are key factors of this role.
