Conservation

The agency provides conservation services for Los Angeles County residents. Services include conservation, graffiti removal, recycling and urban beautification. Transportation may be provided to and from various worksites. There are no geographic restrictions for most services.

Conservation services throughout LA County are conducted by Young Adult Corps participants, 18 to 24 years of age, and serve as job training opportunities for the corpsmembers as well as environmental beautification of the community.

The Clean & Green program provides short-term employment for youth ages 14 to 21, including urban conservation and graffiti removal projects. They serve all 15 council districts.

Ancillary services for participants include weekly educational sessions and workshops which focus on basic education skills, career planning or money management. Special presentations about the historical, environmental, or cultural background of specific work projects are also offered.
