Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)

The fellows of Arcata Fish & Wildlife Office developed and delivered a conservation message for the western snowy plover to address the lack of engaging outreach materials available. Nicoli Burdeinii developed graphic designs and Midalia Garcia created an outreach volunteer training manual. Together with Neshwa Rabie and Lily Field, the corps fellows utilized their knowledge learned during field snowy plover surveys to deliver a message of curiosity, awareness, and responsible behavior. Such outreach work educates the public on the threatened species and how to best aid in their population recovery. Through this experience, the fellows hope to contribute creative ideas on how to approach the subject and inspire coastal stewardship among members of the public to care for species in our ecosystem, as a way of helping society
