YCCBC's 2024 Vancouver cohort launched their new season last week and have already hit the ground running. Under the leadership of youth committee alumni Kayley Johns and Allena Arnold, the team has been busy building camaraderie and preparing for the challenges ahead. As part of their foundational training, the cohort pursued first aid certification, equipping themselves with essential safety skills. This early focus on teamwork and preparedness sets a strong tone for the coming months, aligning with YCCBC’s mission to develop effective, well-rounded leaders in climate resilience and sustainability.

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.
