GREEN Corps

The GREEN (Grow Renew Educate Engage) AmeriCorps Program seeks to harness the assets of higher education institutions to meet the environmental needs of NH communities and assist in their efforts to mitigate the causes and impact of climate change and growth and development.  The program is designed to further the work of environmental organizations in NH, while leveraging the growing interest among youth and students in environmental stewardship to develop their capacities as environmental problem-solvers.  Members will train youth and students in energy efficiency, sustainability and environmentally conscious practices as described by the U.S. Department of Energy.   Members will recruit volunteers to serve at local organizations in roles that promote environmental stewardship.  GREEN AmeriCorps members will work with colleges and K 12 schools to assist them in developing or expanding their recycling programs.

Community organizations or institutions of higher education interested in hosting a GREEN Corps AmeriCorps member should complete a host site application.
