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.
Rocky Mountain National Park is the fifth most visited national park in the country and operates the fourth largest park-based volunteer program in the country. With approximately 650 volunteers serving around 80,000 hours each year, many park operations use the support of volunteers. At Rocky, you can find volunteers at the front desk of our visitor center, greeting visitors at trailheads, manually removing invasive vegetation, and much more. The Volunteer Program is based on the east side of the park, and many of our volunteers live in the gateway towns of Estes Park and Grand Lake, Colorado. Rocky’s volunteers also come from all over the Colorado Front Range, sometimes driving one or two hours to reach their service location. While we recruit new volunteers each year, many of our volunteers have served at the park for many years.
The Community Volunteer Ambassador at Rocky Mountain National Park will support the Volunteer Program in a number of ways, including assisting volunteers with completing digital forms on Volunteer.gov, planning volunteer recognition strategies, organizing volunteer events, assisting with annual reporting, maintaining trainings for volunteers, and more.
