LA Conservation Corps

Program Information

The LA Conservation Corps is an environmentally focused youth development organization. As the largest urban conservation corps in the country, we provide opportunities for young adults throughout Los Angeles who are out-of-work and out-of-school to explore new pathways to meaningful career and education opportunities while improving the quality of life in Southern California. By offering paid work experience on green community projects, we strive to build resilience in our Corpsmembers and in the neighborhoods they call home.

Are undocumented students allowed to intern at your organization? 

Many sites allow undocumented workers as long as they have an Individual Tax Identification Number (ITIN).  

No, we do not accept undocumented student interns at our organization.
