Opportunity Information: Apply for P15AS00178
The Campus Outdoor Ambassador Program is a collaborative initiative between the National Park Service (NPS) and The Outdoor Foundation, intended to enhance youth engagement in outdoor activities and conservation of public lands. This program aims to link young adults with national parks, fostering a new generation of outdoor enthusiasts and promoting healthy recreation experiences.
The NPS plans to award a total of $100,000 to continue this program, which has been ongoing since a previous agreement (P15AC00369). The expected period for this funding is up until September 30, 2016. The Outdoor Foundation will be responsible for recruiting student ambassadors, implementing a training program, and managing the ambassador network to boost outdoor participation and awareness of national parks among college students.
The NPS will work closely with the Outdoor Foundation to develop recruitment strategies that focus on engaging diverse audiences, including minorities and underserved communities. The role of the NPS includes providing support, feedback, and fostering connections between the ambassadors and national parks.
This funding opportunity does not involve open competition and is justified as a continuation of prior activities that are essential for the project's success. The agreement is established under several legal authorities that facilitate cooperation and funding for outdoor recreation initiatives.Apply for P15AS00178
