"My name is Shannon, and I was raised in the beautiful city of Kamloops, British Columbia. As a psychology student, I am deeply interested in the connection between the environment and our mental health. I believe that our well-being is intricately linked to the health of our planet and that we must take action to protect it.

Living in BC, I have seen firsthand the devastating impact of climate change on our province, from wildfires to flooding. As someone who deeply values the natural world, I am passionate about doing my part to fight against climate change. That's why I am proud to have my values align with those of the Youth Climate Corps, an organization that is dedicated to creating a sustainable future for all. I am committed to raising awareness about the importance of protecting our planet. By working together and taking action now, we can create a better future for ourselves and future generations. Let's unite to make a difference and create a more sustainable world."

We are committed to maintaining and growing respectful relationships in every region where we work.

 

YCCBC recognizes that colonization has deeply disrupted Indigenous Peoples’ relationships with their lands, communities, and cultural practices. We understand that the climate crisis is rooted in ongoing systems of colonialism and resource extraction—systems that became possible through the dispossession of Indigenous Peoples from their homelands.

We believe that Indigenous sovereignty is essential to building just futures and liveable worlds. YCCBC is committed to listening, learning, and walking in solidarity with Indigenous communities and to supporting Indigenous-led climate action across the province.

ABOUT US 

Youth Climate Corps BC develops the climate leaders of tomorrow by training a workforce of young people who know how to work together, communicate powerfully, and get things done on projects that contribute to climate resilience in communities across British Columbia.
