Description
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR APPLICATIONS. This announcement is to provide public notice of the National Park Service’s intention to award a task agreement under a previously competed or single source justified master cooperative agreement. Master Cooperative Agreement Number P15AC00012 was entered into by and between the Department of the Interior, National Park Service, (NPS), and Citizens Conservation Corps for the purpose of providing education, stewardship and employment opportunities to young people. he goal of the project is to provide training and career development opportunities that enable a youth intern to build meaningful connections to Boston Harbor Islands National Recreation Area, the National Park Service and a dynamic array of conservation and service oriented park partners (e.g., Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation, Boston Harbor Now). This will be done through learning-based service that matches youth skills and career development interests with authentic public lands projects and professionals best able to facilitate meaningful real-world training. The youth intern will develop career readiness skills, a resource stewardship ethic supported by actionable knowledge and skills, and a commitment to service that benefits community and country. The participating youth intern will 1) coordinate at least forty (40) programs at the park Welcome Center; 2) plan, prototype and evaluate at least five new engagement activities at the Welcome Center;; 3) plan and execute at least five community engagement programs; 4) collect visitor use data to inform decision making about park programming and facilities; and 5) coordinate completion of critical deferred maintenance projects to improve visitor safety and satisfaction at the park Welcome Center. The park receives the ancillary benefits of enhanced visitor programming, improved community engagement and accomplishment of deferred maintenance projects that would not otherwise happen.
