The Yampa River Collaborative – a group of conservation and agriculture nonprofits consisting of Friends of the Yampa, Community Agriculture Alliance, Yampa Valley Sustainability Council, The Nature Conservancy, Trout Unlimited, and River Network – is rereleasing the Request for Proposals for a technical consultant to help develop and lead the Yampa River Stewardship Program (YStew). The new deadline for proposals is June 23^rd. YStew will engage landowners, land managers, and practitioners in co-creating best practices for managing lands along the Yampa River and connect them with informational resources and funding opportunities for desired projects.

The goal of the YVSC Internship Program is to connect motivated students and young professionals with professional training and experience that puts them on track to sustainability professions and/or collaborations in the future.

The 12-week program brings interns into contact with YVSC staff and engages them in our programs addressing sustainability issues in the Yampa Valley, while providing them with training and on-the-ground experience in nonprofit work. Using a project-based approach, participants apply what they learn through the internship to contribute to, expand on or develop a meaningful environmental project within our community.
