SUBJECT:
SUMMARY: Recognizes the week of April 9, 2018, as California Conservation Corps and Community Conservation Corps Week; and, commends the California Conservation Corps and community conservation corps for their long history of developing young adults into citizens with character, credentials, and commitment, while protecting and enhancing California’s natural resources. Specifically, this resolution makes the following legislative findings:
- In 1976, the California Conservation Corps (CCC) was established by Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. as a government agency within the Natural Resources Agency and today holds a place of pride as the oldest and largest conservation corps in the nation.
- The only state program with year-round residential centers, the CCC has more than two dozen residential and nonresidential locations throughout the state, where young adults 18 to 25 years of age, inclusive, are provided with the opportunity to participate in a year of paid service to the state, through which they work on environmental projects and respond to natural and manmade disasters, while gaining skills and experience to help them attain meaningful careers.
- Since its creation, the CCC has both served and benefited more than 120,000 young people, who have provided 74.1 million hours of natural resources work throughout the state, tackling more than 900 projects annually.
- Community conservation corps are individual, regional organizations that operate throughout the state and advance projects that support and address critical state needs.
- Community conservation corps and the CCC work collaboratively in many areas and share the same mission of providing job training and educational opportunities to California’s most disenfranchised youth.
- In their commitment to teach and prepare young people to become strong environmental leaders, develop an ethic of service, and create strong, sustainable communities, the CCC and community conservation corps have provided California youth with unique opportunities to protect and restore the state’s environment.

ANALYSIS: This resolution makes the following legislative findings:
- In 1976, the CCC was established by Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. and today holds a place of pride as the oldest and largest conservation corps in the nation.
- The only state program with year-round residential centers, the CCC has more than two dozen residential and nonresidential locations throughout the state, where young adults between the ages of 18 and 25, inclusive, are provided with the opportunity to participate in a year of paid service to the state, through which they work on environmental projects and respond to natural and man-made disasters, while gaining skills and experience to help them attain meaningful careers.
- Since its creation, the CCC has both served and benefited more than 120,000 young people, who have provided 74.1 million hours of natural resource work throughout the state, tackling more than 900 projects annually; among their many accomplishments, members of the CCC have planted more than 24.6 million trees, provided 1.6 million hours of fish habitat improvement work, built or maintained more than 11,621 miles of backcountry trails in California’s national parks and forests, and dedicated more than 11 million hours of work to improving rural and urban parks and recreation areas. In addition, members of the CCC have provided 11.3 million hours of emergency response work, having responded to nearly every California natural disaster over the last four decades, including floods, fires, earthquakes, and more.
- In contrast to the CCC, which is a government agency within the Natural Resources Agency, community conservation corps are individual, regional, nonprofit organizations certified by the CCC. While community conservation corps predominantly serve urban areas, the CCC additionally provides services in rural areas through its residential and backcountry trails program.
- In their commitment to teach and prepare young people to become strong environmental leaders, develop an ethic of service, and create strong, sustainable communities, the CCC and community conservation corps have provided California youth with unique opportunities to protect and restore the state’s environment.
