The Request for Applications is open for 2020-2021 Sierra Corps Host Sites! We are seeking supportive, enthusiastic conservation organizations that are implementing forest health, wildfire resilience and biomass development projects in the Sierra to host Fellows for up to one year starting in early 2021. Applicants must be conducting work within the operational boundary of the Sierra Nevada Conservancy and be able to provide cash match for the program.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis but the priority application deadline is June 30, 2020 at 5:00pm PST.  This is a competitive selection process and Host Sites applications will be evaluated based on a variety of criteria including need, supervisor capacity, financial capacity, and scope of project work. Four host sites will be selected for the 2020-2021 term.  Host Site Applications can be found here: https://sierranevadaalliance.org/sierra-corps-host-sites/ and should be submitted via email to nicole@sierranevadaalliance.org.
