A non-partisan partnership of orgs working to support the Climate Corps to tackle resilience & clean energy + create paths to good-paying jobs. #ClimateCorps
We're in Philadelphia today with PowerCorpsPHL, who has been selected for a $15 million @EPA grant to support their Reforestation Hub, where American Climate Corps members help the city meet its climate goals everyday⚡️
Meeting with members of the Ancestral Lands Conservation Corps this week was an inspiring reminder of the power of @POTUS’s American Climate Corps. These young people give me such hope for our future. https://t.co/kSTuRr6MHF
Our team was on the ground in Michigan this week to learn about @MichiganEGLE's Healthy Climate Corps and the AmeriCorps Climate READY program.
We had a great time with ACC members who are focused on weatherizing buildings, siting solar energy and restoring brownfield sites⚡️
It was an honor to have @ClimateCorpsUS join us this week! Corps members are making a real impact in communities, tackling climate change and creating healthier environments! Check it out: https://t.co/uLDz9OIjBf #MIHealthyClimate
Amazing to see the immediate response of #ClimateCorps partner @AmeriCorps just days after the disasters, and now an increase of 140 members being deployed to impacted areas. These members are often the last to leave communities and help with long-term recovery and resilience.
We're ramping up our disaster response efforts in North Carolina & Florida following Hurricanes Helene and Milton. This week, 140 additional AmeriCorps members are joining the recovery efforts to support impacted communities. Read more: https://t.co/HjaxGw3e6K

More than 180 @AmeriCorpsNCCC members have been deployed to support those recovering from Hurricane Helene. @AmeriCorps members are often the first on the ground and the last to leave during disaster responses ensuring communities are supported during urgent times of need.
Important to see #ClimateCorps partner @AmeriCorps members serving in frontline. Members play a critical role helping communities prepare, respond, & recover from disasters. Through @ClimateCorpsUS we're using local solutions to help communities be more resilient + protected.
Our Administration continues to surge resources to Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia to respond to Hurricane Helene’s impact.
More than 7,400 federal personnel are still deployed, and we will not leave until the job is done.
We had a great time visiting American Climate Corps sites in Minnesota this week⚡️
This tour stop was led by Minnesota’s GreenCorps, an ACC partner and amazing program focused on protecting MN's environment while training a new generation of climate and environmental leaders.
Our partners at @VolunteerNC help to lead a #ClimateCorps but importantly right now, disaster relief efforts for the state - please help out if you are able and if you are in the region, they are organizing volunteer disaster relief opportunities: https://t.co/dguhWhQCgW
The North Carolina Disaster Relief Fund is live. If you’re able to give, please consider a donation to help North Carolinians as they clean up and recover from Helene. You can donate at https://t.co/yjrg796nrJ.
@SenPeterWelch@EPA@AmeriCorps We appreciate your ongoing support and leadership on #ClimateCorps and ensuring we're building new career paths to jobs while getting local resilience & clean energy projects done. @VermontCorps has been leading the way with locally-driven solutions.
This National Public Lands Day, @POTUS’ American Climate Corps is stewarding the lands and waters we all love. Today, I joined Student Conservation Association volunteers at Fort Dupont Park in Washington, DC to pick up trash, enhance trails, and remove invasive plants.
Sending a warm welcome to @HUDgov & @ActSecTodman to the @ClimateCorpsUS. Our partners look forward to working with you to expand the #ClimateCorps in communities around the country to provide more paths to jobs and support a more resilient and clean energy future! #ClimateWeek

The @ClimateCorpsUS helps achieve both our good jobs goals AND our climate goals. I was honored to swear in its newest members at the Oconaluftee @DOLJobCorps Civilian Conservation Center!
