Then and Now: 25 Years of Change in River Restoration and the Environmental Movement
This year marks the 25th anniversary of RRNW—a milestone we’ll be highlighting throughout the year in a variety of ways, from storytelling and reflections to community connections that honor where we’ve been and where we’re headed. As we celebrate this moment, it offers a valuable opportunity to look back at how both RRNW and the broader environmental field have evolved over the past quarter century.
Young Professionals Night – How to Break Into the Environmental Field
RRNW’s Young Professionals Night is an opportunity for college students, recent graduates, young professionals, and experienced environmental professionals to come together, make connections, and talk about what it really takes to build a career in the environmental field. The evening will focus on exploring how professionals got their start, the different paths that led them into environmental stewardship and restoration, and how to gain experience in an industry where even entry-level positions can require previous experience.
