Youth Conservation Education
The Hudson Mohawk RC&D Council was recently awarded two Youth Conservation Education Grants from the National Association of RC&D Councils. The Council will partner with the Rensselaer County Soil and Water Conservation District to deliver intergenerational training on leadership and delivery of conservation programs. Programming will involve youth in conservation planning and NRCS program delivery. The youth participant (intern) will assist the council in learning creative delivery mechanisms for conservation planning and education.
