Overview
Position Overview:
Fort Pulaski’s Education and Partnerships IP will help Fort Pulaski National Monument better manage and expand its partnership programs by expanding staff capacity in the worlds of education programming and natural resource interpretation.
Fort Pulaski National Monument has partnered with many local groups to organize and support a Junior Ranger Angler program, supported through a National Park Foundation grant. This year’s IP will play a leading role in the implementation of Fort Pulaski’s Junior Ranger Angler program. Additionally, they will serve with the park’s education coordinator to deliver education programs to visiting students and develop environmental and historical education resources, improving the tools students and teachers have access to at the park.
Past Community Volunteer Ambassador and community partnership IPs assisted with critical volunteer management roles and conducted educational outreach via area schools and non-profits. FOPU wants to capitalize on these successes by continuing to strengthen partnerships, while paying particular attention to the areas of environmental education and interpretation and cultural and historical education in order to continue to improve visitor access to park resources.
