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.
The National Capital Region Invasive Plant Management Team (IPMT) is a regional program that supports all NCR parks by providing the expertise and personnel needed to manage invasive species and restore natural plant communities. The field team implements treatments targeting non-native, invasive plants, and their efforts are complemented by the IPMT volunteer program.
The NCR IPMT volunteer program supported by the CVA hosts group events across NCR parks, educating participants about the impacts of invasive species and training them in plant identification and removal.
By increasing public awareness and involvement, the IPMT fosters environmental stewardship throughout the region and extends invasive plant management efforts beyond park boundaries.
The CVA will expand volunteer opportunities for invasive vegetation management in NCR parks through targeted outreach, education, and increased program visibility. They will engage volunteers by organizing events focused on invasive plant removal, surveys, and training in plant identification and management techniques.
To strengthen and grow the IPMT VIP program, the CVA will maintain relationships with existing government and nonprofit partners while cultivating new partnerships across the region.
