The Zero Waste team is hosting a California Climate Action Corps fellow September 2023-August 2024. The deadline to apply is June 30th, but the sooner the better. The specific posting outlines more about the role on the zero waste team, and there are many other positions available both on the Energy/Environmental Ed teams as well as with other public agencies, tribes, nonprofits and schools throughout the state to engage communities in climate action and education.
As AmeriCorps members, selected Fellows will serve 1700+ hours and learn real-world climate action skills through community projects, while being part of this unique program and statewide force of emerging leaders.
Fellows will earn a stipend of up to $33,000 (spread over 11 months) and combined education awards of $10,000 upon completion to pay educational expenses at eligible schools and training programs or repay qualified student loans.
