Abstract: The National Park Service (NPS) is requesting approval for a new information collection for the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area (SAMO). We will use a series of surveys to objectively evaluate the short and long-term success of three programs (SHRUBS, ECOHELPERS, and SAMO Youth and Alumni). This collection is needed to provide measurable outcomes for the youth education and employment experience programs at SAMO.
