Corps Positions
Crew Member 2019
This is the AmeriCorps position open only to U.S. citizens or permanent legal residents.

This is a training-level, seasonal AmeriCorps position with EarthCorps. 2019 Crew Members will serve from February through December.
Crew members will work on outdoor environmental restoration projects throughout the Puget Sound Region. Their work directly improves the resiliency of our land by restoring habitat, improving water and air quality, reducing erosion, sequestering carbon and engaging the broader community to become stewards of our shared resource. Typical projects include invasive plant removal, native plant installation, trail maintenance, erosion control, and site maintenance.
In addition to impactful service, corps members have the opportunity to grow professionally and personally through training, implementing environmental projects, feedback and reflection.

Members will join international exchange visitors from around the world as they build a global community, sharing insight and inspiration.
