The Phoenix Conservancy General Employee Expectations: As an employee of The Phoenix Conservancy, Field Crew Members are expected to meet general expectations for TPC employees. The expectations laid out herein provide a generalized code of conduct for all employees, board members, volunteers, and staff of The Phoenix Conservancy.

The Phoenix Conservancy Organization Background: Founded in late 2016, The Phoenix Conservancy (TPC) has rapidly grown as a grassroots, startup nonprofit, having put in thousands of hours of work restoring Palouse Prairie, Great Plains shortgrass prairie, and rainforests in Madagascar. Though seemingly disparate, these ecosystems were selected for their close fit with our three project selection criteria on a local (Palouse Prairie), national (Great Plains shortgrass prairie), and global (Madagascar rainforest) scale. Our project sites represent ecosystems that 1) Have less than 10% of original ecosystem intact, 2) Have high biodiversity, as measured by a combination of species number and/or uniqueness, and 3) Present pragmatic opportunities for our organization to have an impact.
