This grant, a collaboration between the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), supports the 2013/2014 Youth Initiative. Its primary goal is to fund competitive projects that offer meaningful conservation employment and engagement opportunities for young people aged 15-25. These opportunities will specifically benefit USFWS national wildlife refuges while simultaneously exposing participants to valuable conservation-oriented career paths. Serving as an implementation tool for the 21st Century Conservation Service Corps (21CSC) effort, the program aims to foster a new generation of conservationists and provide practical, hands-on experience in environmental stewardship.
