| This Grant Opportunity has been modified to add the following information:
The principal purpose of this agreement is to enter into an agreement with an organization that has the local knowledge, skills and ability to recruit and lead young adults from the regional community to participate in the natural resource management projects developed by the BLM. The participant will have an opportunity to gain new skills while instilling in them a sense of pride and ownership of public lands in the Four Corners regions. This will provide young adults from the regional community,Farmington, NM. the sense of ownership by the youth in the region is woefully lacking, as evident by the misunderstanding or no understanding at all of what BLM does in the region or what public lands are. |
