We have two internships available for the fall term:

Environmental Education Intern

The Environmental Education Intern will further our mission by assisting our Education Coordinator with the Salmon in School program. This program is an experiential education opportunity where salmon are raised in classrooms in local schools. Lessons pertinent to salmon and their needs are presented to the classes. The program culminates in the spring as the salmon are released into local streams.

Media and Outreach Intern

The Media and Outreach Intern will further our mission by creating photo and video outreach materials for general use, fundraising, social media, and our website.
