Student Conservation Association, Inc

The Student Conservation Association (SCA) is the largest provider of hands-on environmental conservation programs for youth and adults.

Founded in 1957, the SCA has provided more than 100,000 young people with opportunities to protect the planet through conservation projects at national parks, marine sanctuaries, cultural landmarks, and community green spaces across the country.

After working with the SCA, our program participants emerge with increased environmental awareness, social responsibility and leadership skills.

The SCA is dedicated to building the next generation of conservation leaders while inspiring lifelong protection of the environment and the communities we serve.
