Hands-on Historic Trades Team - Preserve WV AmeriCorps
The Preserve WV AmeriCorps Historic Trades three-person Team will serve closely alongside their site supervisor, who is an Architectural Historian for the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service, to complete hands-on historic preservation and documentation projects across 10 counties. The Monongahela National Forest is a unit of the USDA Forest Service and includes approximately 920,000 acres throughout the Allegheny Highlands region of West Virginia - an area world renowned for its rugged landscape and spectacular views, rivers, blueberry thickets, highland bogs, and open areas with exposed rocks. The Heritage Program is tasked with the management of a wealth of above-ground cultural resources throughout the forest including transportation resources, homesites, recreation resources from the mid-century and CCC-era, and more. Created in 2013, Preserve WV AmeriCorps is the statewide national service initiative where AmeriCorps members help main streets thrive, cultivate cultural heritage tourism, and preserve beloved West Virginia history. Preserve WV AmeriCorps members serve directly with rural grassroots organizations and public agencies charged with preserving West Virginia history. Members' service is site-dependent but generally involves historic preservation, communications, educational outreach, and volunteer management. The primary goal of this program is to build efficient, effective, and sustainable organizations working to improve economic, social, and cultural opportunities in West Virginia.
