Louisiana Green Corps

May flew by! 🌼🌱
This past month we entered the final stretch of our Spring Construction and Conservation Corps (CCC) program. We celebrated with our community, continued career exploration with partners, engaged in service training projects in the community, and honed our carpentry skills in the shop.

Thank you to everyone who made this past month so impactful and celebratory!
