RHA Watershed Engagement Team Ambassadors Needed

Raritan Headwaters Association is looking for volunteers to join our Watershed Engagement Team (W.E.T.)! W.E.T. Ambassadors are a group of volunteers with expertise in RHA’s programs, mission, and activities. These ambassadors work alongside RHA scientists and staff to engage with the community at local fairs, green festivals, and other events around central New Jersey.

This is a unique opportunity to receive high-level training, share your knowledge, passion, and enthusiasm for watershed protection, meet interesting, like-minded people, and have fun engaging with the community! You will receive a certificate, build your resume, and have access to RHA program director’s expertise. Join our team of fun and friendly professionals!

To join this team you must be age 18 or older and have reliable transportation. Click here to learn more about this exciting new initiative and to fill out an application form today.
