Welcome to Conservation Corps New Mexico!
We are excited that you have accepted a term of service as an AmeriCorps Member with Conservation Corps New Mexico. These next few months will present you with an opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of conservation, land management, forestry, fuels management, and stewardship. Service as an AmeriCorps member is an introduction to a new and exciting lifestyle - over the course of the season you will live, learn, train, and work to protect and preserve America’s public lands.
Exciting, challenging, rewarding – there is no one word to describe what it is like participating in this program. You’ll learn new skills, but it will take sweat: this program is designed to be rigorous. You will complete conservation service projects and learn many skills through experience. You will meet great people and finesse teamwork skills to push through times you don't see eye-to-eye. You're joining a long legacy of working hard for the environment and community, and giving something back. We’re glad you’re joining us.
