Do you have an unmet environmental need in your community and would you enjoy supervising an AmeriCorps member to meet that need? The Palouse-Clearwater Environmental Institute AmeriCorps Program seeks organizations that would like to host an AmeriCorps member to complete a project in the areas of environmental education and stewardship and on-the-ground restoration.
We are currently accepting applications from organizations located in Idaho that would like to host an AmeriCorps Member for the 2023-2024 service term. For more information, contact Courtney Warner, PCEI AmeriCorps Program Director. We are looking for organizations that will complete projects with their members that address unmet community needs in the areas of environmental education, stewardship, and restoration, and can adequately report on progress in those areas.

Selected Sponsors host AmeriCorps members
PCEI AmeriCorps members serve in a variety of position types, depending on the time of year and needs of the sponsor site. Members who enroll in the fall typically serve a full term, completing 1,700 hours over 11 months. Members starting in the winter or spring may serve partial terms, such as completing 900-hours over 5.5 months.
We are currently accepting applications from schools, nonprofit and community-based organizations, and government agencies located in Idaho. Sponsoring agencies develop the project, recruit member(s), and provide daily guidance and supervision. They are selected through a competitive process based on their proposal for a placement that meets PCEI AmeriCorps’ objectives and critical community needs.
