Thank you for an amazing Careers in Conservation Job Fair!

Thank you to everyone who made our inaugural Conservation Career Fair on March 6, 2026, an incredible success! We were thrilled to welcome approximately 800 passionate job seekers and conservation professionals to connect with leading environmental organizations across the Bay Area. Your enthusiasm made this event a powerful celebration of our community’s dedication to environmental stewardship. A huge thank you to our participating employers, volunteers and attendees for helping us spearhead this vital event. Now that the event has passed, we look forward to the future!
