Each summer, Anchorage teens step into the city’s parks not just as visitors, but as caretakers, builders, and leaders. Through
Youth Employment in Parks (YEP), a partnership between the Anchorage Park Foundation and Anchorage Parks & Recreation, teens gain job experience, learn hands-on outdoor skills, and make a visible impact on the places their community loves. Since 2007, YEP has connected hundreds of teens to nature, meaningful work, and future careers, while strengthening Anchorage’s parks and public spaces along the way.
