Join us in conserving and managing our state’s natural resources as a DNR Volunteer!
Check out current openings across the state listed under DNR Volunteer Opportunities:
- SELECT an opportunity.
- APPLY online to volunteer by creating a volunteer profile.
- SIGN UP for a specific activity to do.
- CHECK THE SCHEDULE in your profile that you are signed up. If it doesn't appear, email the DNR contact person listed.
- LOG OFF and download the MyImpact app to your smart device or bookmark the login page.
After you have created a volunteer profile:
- VISIT this DNR Public Page to find volunteer opportunities around the state to apply for and sign up.
- USE THE SAME USERNAME AND PASSWORD to log in to apply and sign up for any volunteer position.
- If you ever forget these, click on Forgot your username or password? and they will be sent to you using the email you signed up with.
- Do not create a new volunteer profile.You only need one in the system to volunteer with us anywhere in the state.
- Because the DNR is so large, you must apply to specific accounts such as a named state park, state trail, regional wildlife area, or program to become a volunteer there. But you use the same volunteer profile you originally created.
- LOG IN to the MyImpact app or MyImpactPage.com to open your volunteer profile and see the Opportunities available to you in the accounts you have already applied to. There you can simply sign up.
