Regional Coordinators work with their communities and the Xerces Society to guide local volunteer effort for the Western Monarch Count (WMC).
Regional coordinators provide essential training, support and guidance to WMC volunteers. They are great sources of information and oftentimes have years of experience counting western monarchs and assessing their overwintering habitat. Regional coordinators work closely with the Xerces Society and count co-founder, Mia Monroe, to meet the goals of the WMC project and engage local community scientists.
