Thousands of youth and veterans engaged in conservation efforts throughout the National Park System. Participants contributed to the mission of the National Park Service while developing life skills. The projects promoted and stimulate public purposes such as education, job training, development of responsible citizenship, productive community involvement, and furthering the understanding and appreciation of our nation’s natural and cultural resources through the involvement of youth and young adults.
Youth and veterans worked throughout the Service providing interpretive, educational, technical presentations as well as worked in research and conservation efforts to advance their understanding of conservation and protection of public lands.
