Youth and Educators

From April 9-12, BLM New Mexico staff joined the Wilderness Inquiry crew to host the state’s third annual Canoemobile event at Cochiti Lake, New Mexico. This traveling event is known as a “floating classroom” and brings students of all ages and abilities out on local waterways to learn about science, history, geography, and culture.

BLM is paving the way for high school students to pursue careers in wildfire with a new education program. The combined classroom curriculum and field training make them eligible for BLM fire crew jobs upon graduation.

Bureau of Land Management staff members, including Santa and Mrs. Claus, brought big smiles to children this holiday season.

BLM Arizona Strip District Law Enforcement joined a group of northern Arizona first responders to give children throughout the community the joy of the holiday season.

Participation in the conference showcases the Bureau of Land Management's commitment to connecting Indigenous professionals and students across the nation with career opportunities.
