Water connects everything and everyone across the landscape. Serving as the Watershed Engagement Coordinator with Friends of the Mad River will give you valuable experience connecting the dots between healthy land, clean water, and the vibrant Mad River Valley community. This position is part of the Vermont Housing & Conservation Board AmeriCorps (VHCB AmeriCorps) program. 

In the context of a changing climate and landscape, the Watershed Engagement Coordinator will help build resilience, adaptability, awareness, and inclusion into our watershed community by working with the Friends of the Mad River team to coordinate events and opportunities for education and community engagement. These events will come in many shapes and sizes, from community forums on the Vermont Climate Action Plan to guided naturalist hikes and climate-focused book clubs. Creativity is encouraged! Your work will connect you with important partners and decision makers and help inform the future of conservation in the valley. A passion for bringing people together, a commitment to following the science, and a love of the outdoors will help you find success in this position.

This position is for 1,720 hours for an average of 40 hours per week for 47 weeks. VHCB AmeriCorps Members will receive a living allowance of $26,000 (pre-tax), a $300 monthly housing allowance, and an education award of $6,895 (pre-tax) upon successful completion of service.
