26-27 Ecostudies Institute Prairie Restoration Technician

This is an AmeriCorps/Washington Service Corps national service position. It is contingent on funding and open until filled. Ecostudies Institute is a non-profit located in Olympia, WA. We focus on the conservation of native species and their ecosystems. We address complex environmental challenges through partnerships, conservation research, and strategic, science-based management. The member will serve on a cohort focused on different aspects of prairie restoration. They will focus on hands-on restoration tasks and spend a smaller amount of time on habitat monitoring. We seek people with a passion for ecosystem conservation and restoration. The ability to serve mostly outdoors and experience with on-the-ground restoration actions are desired. Many of the conservation activities will be conducted on an active military base. We expect to begin rolling review of applications and interviews in mid-late September. Monthly stipend amount: $2,438.
