California Climate Action Corps Gains National Recognition!

California Climate Action Corps Gains National Recognition!

The California Climate Action Corps is making waves on a national scale! This innovative program was recently highlighted in a New York Times article: How California Grew a Service Corps Larger Than the Peace Corps.” This recognition comes as the Biden administration launches the American Climate Corps, a program inspired by California’s successful program. John Podesta, Biden’s adviser on clean energy who heads the American Climate Corps, has called the California program a “model for what we’re doing.”

The Energy Coalition is proud to have contributed to the success of the California Climate Action Corps. We provide regional supervision and training to over 360 fellows in the program across California.

These dedicated young professionals are tackling climate challenges head-on, from wildfire resilience to urban greening. We’re incredibly proud of their work and excited to see the California Climate Action Corps model serve as a blueprint for national climate action!
