Washington Conservation Corps

Washington Conservation Corps (WCC) supports young adults and military veterans as they jumpstart their careers in the environmental field. We support over 300 members annually through our field crews and Individual Placement positions located all around the state. With a focus on service, safety, inclusivity, integrity, and learning, we strive to provide our members with meaningful service opportunities that foster career development and interpersonal growth. At WCC, you'll receive hands-on training and direct mentorship from environmental professionals while enacting positive change in your community and making memories that will last a lifetime. Our members complete projects for over 100 partner organizations, including national forests, national parks, conservation districts, state and local natural resource agencies, Tribes, and nonprofits. In an average year, WCC members plant over 400,000 native trees and shrubs, improve 3,000 acres of habitat, build and maintain over 400 miles of trails, and respond to local and national disasters as needed. Our members have had an immeasurable impact on Washington's public lands and resources since our founding in 1983.
