At Weld Conservation, you’ll serve on outdoor crews that work on projects to protect land, water, and energy resources in Weld County. Service opportunities are available throughout the year, depending on crew needs and project schedules. There are different service lengths available, so you can find one that fits your goals and availability.

AmeriCorps is a service program, not a job. When you join, you’re making a commitment to help your community. You’ll gain experience, learn new skills, and earn money for school or job training. It’s a great way to grow while giving back.
