"LEADING OUR NATIONS BACK TO ECOLOGICAL AND CULTURAL WELL-BEING" PROGRAM AND POSITION SUMMARY:
Ancestral Lands Conservation Corps (ALCC) engages motivated Indigenous young adults, ages 18 - 30, to complete challenging and impactful conservation and service projects throughout the western United States. Projects may include trail construction & maintenance, habitat improvement, hazardous fuels reduction, re-vegetation, historic preservation, and local environmental service projects. ALCC provides opportunities for members to learn about the local environment and issues surrounding conservation. ALCC crews work in a variety of National Parks, National Forests, and other public areas. Selected members are placed on a crew which will then collaborate to perform project work. ALCC is a non-residential program and does not offer housing. Gear and equipment rental is available upon request.
Placed on historically Tiwa territory, Ancestral Lands Conservation Corps Albuquerque Office is located at Valle de Oro National Wildlife Refuge. The ALCC Albuquerque office is comprised of a multitribal and multicultural staff. We, at ALCC-ABQ serve to impact and enrich the lives of community members in the South Valley, Pueblos of the Rio Grande Valley, the Diné Nation, and countless other Indigenous Nations from around the country ranging from Arapaho to Zuni. Established in 2014, ALCC ABQ is dedicated to fostering the youth of these Nations and providing them the skills and tools to lead their Nations back to ecological and cultural well-being. We nurture partnerships with various National Parks and Public Lands in the Southwestern United States, and we aim to cultivate partnerships with other Peoples and Nations.
