## Resource

Want to shape how federal funds are spent on public lands in southern New Mexico? The Gila, Lincoln, and Cibola National Forests are seeking diverse volunteers for their Resource Advisory Committee — a key group that reviews and recommends projects like trail building, watershed cleanup, and invasive species control. With extended deadlines and a focus on community representation across commercial, environmental, and civic interests, this volunteer role offers real influence over local funding under the Secure Rural Schools Act. Apply by September 30 if you live in Grant, Catron, Sierra, Socorro, Otero, or Lincoln counties — meetings are four times a year, travel is covered, and your voice could help build a better future for public lands.
