Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00595
The Resource Stewards Interns Summer opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00595) is a National Park Service (Department of the Interior) discretionary funding notice describing an intent to support a summer internship project carried out through the Student Conservation Association (SCA). The project places SCA interns at the George Washington Memorial Parkway, where they will serve in a Park Guide capacity while contributing to the park's resource management and maintenance needs. The focus is hands-on, field-based experience that supports day-to-day stewardship work in a national park setting, while also giving interns direct exposure to how resource preservation efforts are planned and executed.
The internship activities described include trail and community outreach work, trail patrols, and participation in both natural and cultural resource projects. In practical terms, this means interns may help engage visitors and local communities about responsible recreation and park resources, assist with on-the-ground monitoring and presence along trails, and support projects that protect or document ecological resources as well as historically or culturally significant features. The overall intent is to build early-career skills through real operational experience, emphasizing learning-by-doing and strengthening the park's capacity to maintain resources and communicate stewardship values to the public.
From an administrative standpoint, the award is structured as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.931, categorized under Employment, Labor and Training. The only eligible applicants listed are nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, the notice is explicit that it is not a request for applications; instead, it serves as public notice of the National Park Service's intent to fund this specific project under an existing cooperative agreement with SCA. The expected number of awards is one, with an award ceiling of $37,000. The opportunity record was created on August 2, 2017, with an original closing date of August 12, 2017, reflecting that it functioned as a formal notification tied to an intended, predetermined partnership action rather than an open competitive grant solicitation.Apply for P17AS00595
