Applications are now being Accepted for TeenNat
Pepperwood's Award-Winning Youth Summer Conservation Science Internship

 
While some teens will be spending their summer days staring at screens, young people at Pepperwood will have fun witnessing how our forests and grasslands, ponds and chaparral are resilient and recovering from the Tubbs Fire. Pepperwood's conservation science internship "
TeenNat" is returning for its 6 th   year and applications are now being accepted. TeenNat will run
 Tuesdays through Thursdays  from  July 10th through August 9th, 2018.  There is no charge for the internship but the application process is competitive and  participants ages 13-18 must apply by April 9th, 2018 .
Find our bilingual program fliers and applications at:
 
TeenNat engages diverse youth in real research, connects them with scientists and other professionals, provides them with technical skills in data collection and photography, and exposes them to nature. Interns are trained to use GPS units and digital cameras to document plants and animals found at Pepperwood (and after the program they get to keep their digital cameras in exchange for their service!). They upload their findings to iNaturalist.org, a global network for biological data used by researchers around the world. TeenNat interns have uploaded over 3,000 observations to date.
 
TeenNat directly connects young people with nature in ways that expand their horizons as a  2017 participant shared, "I lost my fear for bugs.  Before the internship the sight of a bug would send me running across the room.  After seeing the beauty of a life form in its natural habitat I became considerate of the lives around me.  I became more observant.  Although I must admit at times it takes me a bit of courage to hold a praying mantis.  I enjoy the adventurous hikes.  The memories of the preserve will be treasured.  The hikes and reflections opened a door within my mind.  I enjoyed this internship and will miss the friends I made.  Thank you for accepting me in this program and welcoming me into the TeenNat family."
 
Interns learn about career pathways in the sciences as they interact with researchers and conservation professionals. They even get to participate in environmental career day. "This internship has made me consider going into the environmental conservation sciences," said TeenNat alumni Maddi Blanc, "and I look forward to what I can contribute to the scientific world in the future." She is now pursuing a science degree at UC Davis.
 
TeenNat received national recognition through the Toyota TogetherGreen Fellowship awarded to Pepperwood Education Director Sandi Funke for her work designing the program. TeenNat has also been showcased by the North American Association for Environmental Education at their international conference. TeenNat is supported by grants from the Community Foundation Sonoma County, Save the Redwoods League, Dean Witter Foundation, Miranda Lux Foundation, and through donors and members of Pepperwood.
