Our program enables members to be a part of a positive solution for our community while providing them with not only training and skills for their future but also a fun, unique, safe work environment. With this experience, ongoing training and benefits, as well as many unique historical and cultural learning opportunities, many Ameri Corps members choose to reapply after completion of their commitment. Ameri Corps members will perform projects in environmental stewardship and outdoor recreation in Lincoln and Otero County. Crews will complete projects in partnership with National Forest, Bureau of Land Management, Village of Ruidoso, Mescalero Apache Tribe and others. Projects include trail design, construction and restoration, forest monitoring, disaster relief, watershed restoration and community improvement projects. Lincoln County (LC) is located in Eastern New Mexico. It has a population of 20,105 people with 48% in cities and 52% in rural areas; this is spread out over 4,831 square miles and encompasses 10 towns and villages (Capitan, Carrizozo, Corona, Glencoe, Hondo, Nogal, Ruidoso, Ruidoso Downs, San Patricio and Tinnie). Our communities range from vast ranch lands at an elevation of 4,000 feet to alpine mountain ranges of 11,500 feet in elevation. Ruidoso is the main populated Village and has recently been hit hard with wildfires that have devastated our community and has taken valuable resources, homes and tourism. Our community's topography is very diverse and passes through 5 different biomes from the Chihuahua Desert to the Sub-Alpine Forest. The city populations are concentrated in and around the Sub-Alpine Forest. We are a program that enables Ameri Corps members to be a part of a solution for our community and also provide crucial training, skills and certificates to help with future adventures that the Ameri Corps member desire.
