Sponsored by The Nature Conservancy of Georgia as part of the Conservation Involving Today’s Youth (CITY) program, a group of Student Conservation Association (SCA) Interns completed a month-long internship maintaining trails and greenspace in the Arabia Mountain National Heritage Area.

This paid internship brought five students from four Atlanta-area high schools into the National Heritage Area and other sites around Atlanta, teaching them job skills and supporting park rangers.
