Miami Dade College Campus Compact EnviroCorps (Minimum-time)
Campus Compact EnviroCorps is the first nationwide AmeriCorps program dedicated to building capacity and strengthening campus-based, community-led environmental stewardship efforts. EnviroCorps places teams of AmeriCorps members in full- and part-time service terms with our campus and community partners throughout the United States. During this year, Minimum-time members spend 10 hours per week implementing their host site's Environmental Impact Plan to meet EnviroCorps and campus environmental goals. Members do this both by building capacity for their campus and community partners and by providing direct services to increase energy efficiency and/or nature conservation. Campus Compact functions as the central EnviroCorps program hub, performing program administration, offering training, and providing support to EnviroCorps members and their projects. Please see our application form for a complete list of current host sites.
Member Duties : Campus Compact EnviroCorps members will serve on a team of AmeriCorps members at Miami Dade College to build capacity for their campus host site and their community partners. Throughout their service term, EnviroCorps members organize nature conservation projects and implement environmental education events in local communities.
