At EarthCorps, we believe that we\u2019re part of something bigger. We believe that we have a collective responsibility to care for each other and nature, and that we need new ideas and boundless enthusiasm from across the globe to create a better world where people and nature thrive together.<\/p>\n
That boundless enthusiasm shines through our Corps Program. Since 1993, more than 1,000 young adults from across the US and 80 countries from around the world have come to Seattle, Washington to participate in an environmental leadership development program. These emerging environmental leaders make up our Corps Program, where they learn technical environmental restoration and hands-on leadership skills, all while building a close-knit community through caring for our natural world.<\/p>\n
EarthCorps truly embraces the \u201cthink globally, act locally”\u00a0concept. The lands and waters of Puget Sound are our classroom and our legacy.\u00a0Corps members learn leadership and cross-cultural skills by working collaboratively, leading thousands of community volunteers each year, and executing technical environmental restoration projects including salmon stream restoration, native tree plantings, invasive plant removal, wetland and shoreline restoration, and trail construction around the Puget Sound region.<\/p>\n
After the yearlong program, these young leaders return to their local communities and cities with the tools, skills, and enthusiasm needed to tackle the pressing issues of our time \u2013 including climate\u00a0change, pollution, and ecological degradation\u2013 to create a better world for all of us.<\/b><\/p>\nPosition Summary<\/h3>\n
