The USDA Agricultural Ambassadors Program provides high school students from Miami Dade County with the opportunity to intern with USDA in Miami, FL and attend a leadership development program in Miami, FL and Washington, DC. Ambassadors are selected on their academic excellence, interest in agriculture, and demonstrated leadership qualities.
After completing the program, Ambassadors represent USDA at their respective high schools and serve as a resource to students interested in agricultural-related fields. The program is funded by USDA and managed in partnership with Miami-Dade College and Miami-Dade County Public Schools.
We are no longer accepting applications for the 2009 USDA Agricultural Ambassadors Program.
