Green Corps
In 1992, David Brower, Lois Gibbs, and Cesar Chavez helped Green Corps create a yearlong full time, paid Environmental Leadership Training Program. Each year we hire thirty recent college graduates to launch their organizing and advocacy careers with Green Corps. Through our Environmental Leadership Training Program, students gain the hands-on training and experience to put ideas into action and win important victories for public health and the environment. Green Corps’ one-year, full time, paid program gives you the best training available to launch an organizing and advocacy career. To date, Green Corps has trained more than 150 recent college graduates for positions of leadership within the environmental movement. Graduates have gone on to high level positions with local, state and national organizations, including Defenders of Wildlife, Sierra Club and Greenpeace. Deadlines depend on the region, starting January 20th.
