Position Title: Community Volunteer Ambassador, Guilford Courthouse National Military Park – AmeriCorps
jobshiringnearme.org Legacy Program: Stewards Individual Placements
Site Location: 2332 New Garden Road, Greensboro, NC 27410
Application Timeline: Preference given to applicants that submit application by June 13, 2025
Terms of Service:
Purpose:
Stewards Individual Placements, a program of jobshiringnearme.org Legacy, provides individuals with service and career opportunities to strengthen communities and preserve our natural resources. The Community Volunteer Ambassador (CVA) Program combines the strength of a national leader in conservation service with the National Park Service to train emerging leaders to assist park units in building lasting connections to communities.
Guilford Courthouse has a robust in-person and virtual volunteer program. With around 50 reoccurring volunteers and 500 virtual volunteers, the park has reached capacity for bringing on new in-person VIPs. However, instead of recruiting more in-person volunteers, the goal is to continue to provide great experiences and training.
The only in-person VIP opportunity at Guilford Courthouse is the park-accredited internship program. Two interns are recruited and trained each semester at a local university and spend the semester working at the park. The interns shadow different operations within the interpretation and education teams. By the end of the semester, the goal for the intern is to create an interpretation/education program to develop and deliver at a community event or park event.
Guilford Courthouse virtual volunteer program involves citizen archivists transcribing veteran pension records from the Battle of Guilford Courthouse. The park actively recruits and trains new citizen archivists weekly, and the program has been a huge success for the park.
Guilford Courthouse National Military Park’s mission is to continue to grow its relationships with several local government departments, such as the history museum, the libraries, the parks and recreation departments, the city’s accessibility department, and the Office of Sustainability. The supervisor and the CVA will collaborate to expand relationships with the city and community of Greensboro.
The CVA would also assist the supervisor with growing and starting new relationships with Guilford County Schools by helping provide programs at the schools and bringing the schools to the park. The CVA’s active role in developing community outreach programs with these partner organizations is a significant step towards reaching community groups the park has not reached before.
The CVA will assist with the continued development/training of in-person volunteers and accredit interns. In the first half of the internship, the CVA will work alongside the fall-accredited interns, and in the second half, the CVA will take a leadership role with the spring-semester interns. The CVA will work with their supervisor to recruit, interview, and train the spring semester interns.
The CVA will also assist park staff with the virtual volunteer project. Currently, the park has 500 virtual volunteers who transcribe Revolutionary War veteran pension applications. The CVA will assist in communicating, hosting orientation sessions, and assigning pensions to the park’s citizen archivists.
