About Hawaii Youth Conservation Corps

The Youth Conservation Corps (YCC) is a hands-on summer learning experience aimed at educating Hawaii’s youth on the many conservation issues that threaten Hawaii’s unique environment. Students are mentored by and work alongside some of Hawaii’s premiere conservation leaders while building friendships with other students who desire to protect and restore our paradise. Members are also challenged to develop leadership and team work skills. Participants work in rarely visited, breathtaking habitats. YCC is more than just “out of the ordinary"; it's a chance of a lifetime!
