gov The Headquarters Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offices have collaborated with Qualified Youth and Conservation Corps, as authorized by the Public Lands Corps Act (PLC), to accomplish conservation projects for numerous years. This program"s projects employ participants and opportunities to gain work experience in public lands and natural resources management.
Through their BLM experience, youth gain an appreciation for public lands, learn about conservation-related careers, and become the next generation of public lands stewards. The BLM Youth Program also helps the agency accomplish mission-critical... projects across all program areas.
The BLM Youth Program partners with qualified youth and conservation corps through the Public Lands Corp (PLC) Program to engage individuals between the ages of 16 and 30 (inclusive) and veterans up to age 35 (inclusive), including tribal members. The PLC program mandates employing youth who are interested in working on conservation projects that protect public lands.
