The Virginia Service and Conservation Corps (VSCC) is accepting applications from volunteers to serve 1,200-hour AmeriCorps terms in 2021 at Fairy Stone State Park in Stuart.

Those selected receive valuable training, hands-on experience and federally recognized certifications ensuring they are qualified for careers in environmental conservation. Candidates must be willing to commit to 1,200 hours of service, or approximately 37.5 hours per week, from January to September, and can select either resource management or park operations experiential tracks.

AmeriCorps members on the resource management track will learn about best practices in conservation, wildlife management, and trail design and the tools and machinery necessary to maintain them.

Those on the park operations track will learn about park administration, visitor services, security, and maintenance of buildings and grounds.

Applicants must be 17 years of age or older, able to pass multiple background checks and have a high school diploma or GED equivalent.

Selected candidates receive bimonthly living allowances and, after successful completion of a term of service, are eligible to receive a monetary education award that can be applied to educational training, qualified student loans or costs at qualified universities.

AmeriCorps is a national service program administered by the Corporation for National and Community Service. Each year, AmeriCorps offers adults of all ages and backgrounds more than 75,000 opportunities to meet critical needs in communities across America.
