Supervisor George, an enrolled member of the Hoopa Valley Tribe, shared about his experience growing up as a Native American and navigating career pathways in natural resources. Tribal crew members, who will be working on fuels reduction and forest restoration projects within the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest, as part of this program funded by Oregon Conservation Corps, shared about their experience in the program so far.
