Regional Directors
We need your help to ensure that Ontario Nature is there when nature needs us most! We are recruiting Regional Directors for the Carolinian East Nature Network.
Working as a member of Ontario Nature’s Board of Directors, the Regional Director’s role is to build and foster a close relationship between Ontario Nature and regional Nature Network groups. This relationship is vital to engaging Nature Network members in Ontario Nature programs and campaigns, and to ensure that Ontario Nature is aware of key regional concerns and interests which may require action. Equally important is the role of the Regional Director in fostering knowledge and skill sharing amongst Nature Network groups in their region.
Why Should You Become a Regional Director?
- Be there when nature needs you most by contributing to the protection of wild species and wild spaces.
- Volunteer alongside a dedicated and fun team of people who care about nature.
- Influence provincial policy and priorities for nature conservation.
- Ensure your region’s environmental priorities have a voice.
- Set the strategic direction for a leading conservation organization that is the voice for nature in Ontario.
- Participate in enjoyable and educational board retreats and annual gatherings.

Nature Reserve Stewardship
Being a volunteer Nature Reserve steward involves visiting the property and monitoring it for native and invasive species, as well as other threats to the natural habitat. Stewards act as eyes on the ground for our Nature Reserves team. They assist staff to help preserve these unique and diverse natural habitats.
The role requires three visits to the Nature Reserve each year to monitor the property and report any activities to staff. This opportunity is focused on the steward’s interest, so we tailor the position to fit their needs.
