If you love reading, writing and learning about conservation, this is the opportunity for you!
Our website and newsletter demand a steady diet of fresh and local conservation news. Writers will help us generate new stories, interview conservation leaders, use pictures to tell a tale of a thousand words, and much more.
These volunteers will receive the same training as our other positions, plus extra mentoring and support in development of their writing skills.
A background in conservation or environmental science is a plus, but not required.
This is your chance to get your conservation writing in print!
This is a VIRTUAL OPPORTUNITY for local residents in NW Oregon and SW Washington.
