[PCA] NatureServe VP for Conservation Science position

[Bruce Stein]

The job posting below has caused some PCA listserve readers to contact
me wondering where I will be going following my departure from
NatureServe, so I thought I would share that news more broadly. 

In September I will be moving over to the National Wildlife Federation,
based in Washington, DC, where I will be focusing on wildlife adaptation
to climate change. In this new capacity you can be assured that I will
be taking a broad view of "wildlife" to include native plants, and will
continue working to advance native plant conservation issues.
