An important note! This work may not be suitable for everyone. We are looking for volunteers aged 18+ (16+ with a guardian present) who are comfortable working in close proximity to homeless individuals and encampments. We do not judge; we seek to educate and compassionately manage a very complex problem in our watershed.
