Partnership for a Civilian Climate Corps (PCCC) Announced

Next100 is proud to announce its membership in the Partnership for a Civilian Climate Corps (PCCC).

On January 9, 2023, the Partnership for a Civilian Climate Corps (PCCC) launched with Next100 as a founding member.

The PCCC is a coalition of more than 100 local, state, and national organizations advocating for the creation of civilian climate programs that would provide workforce training and paid service opportunities to individuals who get involved in climate resiliency efforts in their communities. These climate corps programs would also provide individuals with the skills needed to access a well-paying green job after service.
