Within our VetsWork program we have a wide range of internship positions that support Mt. Adams Institute’s mission to connect people to the natural environment.  The Habitat Restoration Coordinator is one that combines the active work of restoration and the leadership skills necessary to recruit, train, and coordinate volunteers.  Located in Sherwood, Oregon just 16 miles southwest of downtown Portland, the Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge is one of only a handful of urban national wildlife refuges and encompasses more than 2,200 acres of habitat supporting a wide variety of plants and animals. Over 100,000 visitors annually come to appreciate the wildlife of this urban oasis.

You will get to be a part of building a system and core group of volunteers necessary for sustaining the critical habitat monitoring and restoration work of the refuge.

She’s off for her school overnight trip! She handled all of her own packing and I am fully confident that means she’ll have at least 95% of the things she really needs. Girlfriend is on top of it! #urchinadventures #montessorikids #overnightfieldtrip #cascademountainschool

Last week marked the end of our Mountain to Valley summer camp! For two weeks, students conducted meaningful ecological research while farming, backpacking, mountaineering, and camping. We hope that they left connected to themselves, with new skills and friends, and inspiration to become positive leaders and change makers in our world! #mtadamsinstitute #cascademountainschool #mountaintovalley #mtadams #troutlakevalley  #highschoolcamp #science #stewardship
