Join our Team

Our work is rooted in a simple idea: youth from urban areas should have access to both vital support services and meaningful outdoor adventures.

We’re a small, mission-driven team, and we hire as needs arise—often for part-time, seasonal, or project-based roles that support our programs. When opportunities are available, they’ll be listed below.

If there aren’t any current openings, we still welcome hearing from people who care deeply about connecting youth with the outdoors. Feel free to reach out and introduce yourself.
