Idaho Conservation Corps

Idaho Conservation Corps Non-profit job training and education program for youth and young adults across Idaho.

Idaho Conservation Corps is an innovative non-profit organization dedicated to providing opportunities for youth and young adults to learn, grow, and experience success. We operate outdoor programs that help youth develop critical life skills; focusing on education, challenge, leadership, community, and empowerment. ICC programs include intensive 5-weeks residential camping conservation crews, com

munity-based conservation day crews, and AmeriCorps positions for young adults at least 19 years old. Leaders help youth in our programs gain essential job skills like a solid work ethic, teamwork skills, perseverance, and academic credit, all while learning how to become experiential leaders themselves. Leaders and young adults complete ICC having worked closely with public land agency partners, earned a paycheck, and become better prepared to meet their life’s goals. ICC crews work in communities across Idaho as well as many of the Gem State’s public lands on resource management projects like trail maintenance, non-native w**d eradication, and stream restoration. These projects benefit our public lands while helping to develop the next generation of citizen stewards. Idaho Conservation Corps is open to all youth and young adults looking to make a difference.

Our Young Adult Urban and Community Forestry crew helped restore the landscape at Lansing Lane Fishing and Boating Access Site by removing invasive plants and planting native species. Located along the Boise River, this day-use site provides community access for fishing, paddling, and small-boat launching. Supporting native vegetation helps improve habitat, strengthen the riverbank landscape, and keep this public access point healthy for visitors and wildlife.
