Education and Outreach
CRA has a long-term commitment to education and outreach. We recognize the critical importance of the past and the need to communicate a "sense of place" to the public. This commitment is expressed in several ways. We provide education and training opportunities for students of history, architecture, archaeology and the environment. Through our Internship Program, we provide opportunities for college students to receive hands-on training in cultural resource studies. We also seek to foster public education by making many of our professional articles and reports and conference presentations available.
Cemetery Database
CRA recognizes the importance of cemeteries in genealogical and academic research. In this database, we have compiled burial information from the many cemeteries we have surveyed. Check back for periodic updates.
Community Service and Corporate Support
The owners and employees of CRA believe in community service, giving to those less fortunate, and gifting to worthwhile causes.
Internship Opportunities in Cultural Resource Management
The CRA Internship Program provides students with experience working and learning in a cultural resource management firm.
Prehistoric Artifact Review Blog
The Prehistoric Artifact Review is a new blog sponsored by CRA that serves as a forum for archaeologists to post photographs of unusual or puzzling prehistoric artifacts recovered from excavations in the United States. The goal of the blog is to seek a broader collective knowledge regarding unfamiliar or unusual prehistoric artifacts.
Public Education Projects
To educate the public, we provide a variety of educational programs, which range from site tours to hands-on training in history, architecture, and archaeology.
Reports, Publications, and Presentations
Because CRA believes that archaeological research is ultimatly conducted for the benefit of the public, we make the results of our research available when possible.
