BOZEMAN – Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks is seeking applicants to the Region 3 Citizen Advisory Council in southwestern Montana.

The council meets several times per year and operates in an advisory capacity to help FWP be responsive and effective resource managers within the constraints of the law. Citizen advisors help identify emerging trends and potential conflicts, and they act as FWP ambassadors to various interest groups and geographic communities.

FWP employees benefit from having a deeper understanding of public priorities and expectations with help from citizen advisors, who can function as a trusted sounding board for ideas and initiatives. People who volunteer in this capacity benefit from understanding FWP programs, priorities, administrative processes and limitations in a broader context.

FWP is seeking applicants representing a variety of interests from communities across southwestern Montana within Region 3. Applications must be submitted by 5 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 19.
