Conservation USA will give volunteer leaders specialized skills for training and leading volunteer crews to carry out conservation projects, resulting in environmental education and greater stewardship of our natural and cultural resources. Conservation USA’s fundamental goal is to encourage youth and adults to increase the level of ownership and stewardship of their environment through volunteerism and skills development. This course will help your council build capacity to tackle conservation work, establish new partnerships within the community, and implement an effective council conservation and/or Hornaday committee so that successful completion of the course will result in a national Conservation USA project leader certificate
