The National Park Service celebrates the Community Volunteer Ambassador Program!

Stewards Individual Placements, a program of Conservation Legacy, is excited to support a unique partnership model to facilitate the Community Volunteer Ambassador Program (CVA) for the National Park Service. The CVA program combines the strength of a national leader in conservation service with the National Park Service in order to train a group of emerging leaders to assist park units in building lasting connections to local communities. Over 100 young professionals will serve as CVA members for 50-52 week terms at NPS sites across the country from Hawaii to Florida, over the course of the year. Ambassadors will serve under the guidance and mentorship of the Service’s Interpretation, Education and Volunteers Directorate, but will be directly supervised by a designated NPS site supervisor at the site where they will be stationed.
