"When we talk about conservation, many communities have been intentionally excluded from having a voice at the table. For the future of our National Forests, that must be recognized and changed."

BIO

Ben Correll (he/him) joined the NFF as the Recruitment Manager in December of 2022. Prior to working with NFF Ben had been working with AmeriCorps conservation crews across the American Southwest in Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico.

Ben grew up in central Pennsylvania, a very different landscape from the southwest. He studied Film and Video Production at Penn State University, which inevitably led him to working on trail crews.

Outside of work Ben enjoys bikepacking, canyoneering, and playing way-too-complicated board games. He lives in Buena Vista, Colorado with his partner, and their two anxiety-ridden dogs.
