Crew Leader
“Hi, my name is Alli! I grew up in New Hampshire and went to school for Biology at the University of Vermont.
“This will be my second year working with Teens, Inc. as the Youth Corp Crew Leader. I am excited to spend my summer working on conservation projects and meeting new people.
”In my free time I love to cook, hike and ski. I am looking forward to this summer!”
ALLI PRATT,
2025 YC CREW LEADER
SEE YOU THIS SUMMER!
"Alli and her staff were amazing. We had a rather large project involving fire mitigation and the work was a little on the hard side collecting slash and firewood for removal and chipping. We could not have accomplished it with out their hard work! They were all very respectful and a delight to spend the day with. We will be happy to pass on our great experience to friends and neighbors."
