one position working with the NCFS’s Forest Protection Division in the Forest Health Branch. The interns will
work with multiple staff from each Division; participate in a wide variety of the NCFS’s programs and services;
and contribute to ongoing projects. Some travel outside the Raleigh area will occur so the interns can participate
in forestry outreach meetings, fieldwork, partner discussions, etc.

Anticipated start date: Mid-May, 2020
