The Student Conservation Association is the largest provider of hands-on environmental conservation programs for youth and young adults.
With support from Colcom Foundation, the Student Conservation Association (SCA) can improve Pittsburgh’s parks and green spaces, bolster city-wide sustainability efforts, and engage youth and young adults through local conservation projects. Colcom’s investment contributes to tangible and measurable environmental benefits in the communities where SCA’s crews work and plays a unique role in developing the next generation of conservation leaders. In partnership, Pittsburgh youth embrace green jobs, preserve the region’s natural resources, and take pride in their communities.
