Youth Climate Corps British Columbia (YCCBC) is a climate action campaign and program that builds on youth leadership to foster climate resilience and a livable, low-carbon future while paying young people a living wage.
To face today's most imminent menace: the climate crisis, YCCBC invites the youth of British Columbia to mobilize. YCCBC is the starting movement in Canada and could be the transformative new public program because we are in climate emergency mode.
Youth Climate Corps BC strives to envision and realize a fair, just, and livable future for everyone.

Building A Youth Climate Corps
Climate justice is everything.
Lifting up the voices of those who most acutely feel the impacts of climate change will be the only way to effectively meet the challenge of addressing the climate emergency.
Wildsight Operating Youth Climate Corps
Youth Climate Corps started in 2020 as a program of Wildsight, a grassroots organization dedicated to protecting biodiversity and encouraging sustainable communities in Canada's Columbia and Rocky Mountain regions. The inaugural program was based in Nelson, BC, with fourteen youth crew members working for four months on a variety of climate projects in the surrounding West Kootenay region.
Wildsight operates the Youth Climate Corps in BC's Columbia Basin and is working to grow the West Kootenay and Kimberley/Cranbrook crews while expanding to new communities in the region. For more information, please get in touch with Wildsight.
