We are a Central Oregon non-profit engaging local opportunity youth, ages 16-24. Every year, we provide job skills training, education, and leadership development to over 300 local young people who face major barriers to success. We are empowering a generation of young people to believe in themselves and help them to achieve their pathway to success. Through this work, we will create a future with equitable opportunities in Central Oregon.

High Desert Conservation Corps is a year-round program that offers young adults ages 17-24 opportunities to serve outdoors on natural resource projects around Central Oregon. This is an Ameri Corps term of service where corps members earn professional certifications, learn technical job skills, and serve alongside state and federal agencies on projects focused on fire fuel reduction, invasive species removal, trail work, and more.

This is a great opportunity for young adults who are out of school, looking for a gap year, or are interested in a career in natural resources.
