The Washington Conservation Corps (WCC) program is recruiting about 260 AmeriCorps members to support critical restoration and recreation projects across the state.
WCC is a career-development program within Ecology providing hands-on experience and mentorship to young adults and military veterans. We work with more than 100 partner entities that have environmental restoration and recreation projects for our members including cities and counties, local conservation districts and parks departments, Tribes, state and federal agencies, and nonprofit organizations.
Our WCC members serve partner organizations either as part of a six-person field crew made up of one supervisor and five members or as an individual placement.
During the current WCC service year, which started Oct. 1, 2025, and ends Sept. 10, 2026, members supported hundreds of conservation projects throughout Washington. They reduced fuel loads in wildfire-prone forests near Spokane, created a self-guided walk focused on plants and trees at Tukwila Park in King County to commemorate Earth Month, and delivered supplies to Whatcom County residents impacted by the historic December 2025 floods.
WCC member positions are open to young adults ages 18-25, as well as military veterans and people with mental or sensory disabilities of any age. Members receive a living allowance, health insurance, professional training, and an education award after successfully completing their term.
Positions start service on Oct. 5, 2026, and end on Sept. 15, 2027. Field crew interviews are scheduled on a rolling basis, so we recommend applying early at https://apps.ecology.wa.gov/wcc/
