Industry Outlook
There is a wide range of jobs on parks and public lands in this country, but their numbers depend on the economy and the priorities of Congress, the president, and state and local government budgets. During the late 2000s and early 2010s, state and local governments were reducing their spending and cutting funding to parks. The result was a greater dependency on volunteers to help staff parks.
