This is the About section for the Youth Volunteer Program Guide.

Here is the full version of the Youth Volunteer Program Guide - Cultivating a Community of Forest Stewards, by VT Dept. of Forests, Parks & Recreation and Winooski Valley Park District. The fun and success of running restoration programs focused on invasive plant removal led us to creating this guide as a resource for anyone interested. Here, you’ll find steps and checklists to get you from first thinking of a program all the way to saying goodbye to your work group, and everything in between. The appendix is full of example schedules and scripts that we have used and you’re welcome to use as-is or modify to meet your needs.
