Be a part of the driving force behind the Lake Region's conservation efforts
The Lakes Region Conservation Corps (LRCC) is an AmeriCorps state service program that develops skills and experiences for conservation professionals. The Squam Lakes Association manages the Lakes Region Conservation Corps AmeriCorps program, and is one of eight host sites within the program.
Full-Term members serving at the SLA have the opportunity to experience the seasonal nature of conservation from January through November. The quiet winter is spent deep diving into projects, followed by a booming summer full of boots on the ground conservation, and closing with a picturesque autumn with time to run reports and close out the season.
