The Massachusetts Land Initiative for Tomorrow (MassLIFT) is an AmeriCorps program managed by Mount Grace Land Conservation Trust. MassLIFT-AmeriCorps is a collaborative effort of regional conservation groups, including Greenbelt. The members build organizational capacity to meet critical community needs for land protection, stewardship of protected lands, conservation outreach and education, and service learning that engages young people in conservation.
MassLIFT members serve in one of four positions: land stewardship coordinator, regional conservation coordinator, service learning coordinator, or community engagement coordinator. These full-time AmeriCorps positions come with living allowances, health insurance, and the potential to earn education awards. The 2014 program runs from September 8, 2014 through August 7, 2015. Greenbelt seeks to hire service members in two positions - the Land Stewardship Coordinator and Community Engagement Coordinator. Position Descriptions
