Youth Opportunities
If you would like to work outdoors in teams to improve the environment, check out Conservation Corps youth programs. In the Summer Youth Corps, you will live in tents and help restore natural areas for four weeks, mid-June to mid-July or mid-July to mid-August. Starting with four days of training, you then spike camp throughout the region improving trails, removing invasive plants, planting trees, installing rain gardens and restoring native habitats
