EarthCorps brings together passionate and hardworking young adults from the US and countries around the world, for a yearlong leadership training program in Seattle, Washington. Corps members learn leadership skills by working collaboratively, leading community volunteers, and executing technical restoration projects along shorelines, trails and in forests. Young leaders leave EarthCorps with the tools and skills to tackle pressing issues – including climate change, pollution, and ecological degradation – and create a better world. EarthCorps members receive a modest stipend to offset housing and living expenses.
