   Please share information about this exciting opportunity with young
   people you know.  If you?re running a summer employment program, the
   youth participants will be back before a July 7 ^th start.

   The National Hispanic Environmental Council has joined forces with the
   National Parks Service to host the  2nd Minority Youth Environmental
   Training Institute from June 27 - July 2, 2008 in New York .  It 's a
   great educational and networking experience for 16-18 year olds
   interested in environmental careers and leadership.

   are still accepting applications and they have opened up a few spots
   for Boston residents .  The program includes a scholarship that covers
   the cost of participation.  The Boston Youth Environmental Network may
   be able to cover travel and lodging for participants.

   NHEEC immediately at 703-861-6064 or jrodriguez at nheec.org) .  Please
