Youth Employment in Parks Crew Leaders
Each summer, Anchorage teens step into the city’s parks not just as visitors, but as caretakers, builders, and leaders. Through Youth Employment in Parks (YEP), a partnership between the Anchorage Park Foundation and Anchorage Parks & Recreation, teens gain job experience, learn hands-on outdoor skills, and make a visible impact on the places their community loves. YEP is currently seeking 3 Crew Leader’s for the program. If you have experiencing building trails or working with youth and want to spend your summer in Alaska leading teens on park improvement projects, Apply Now.
