The Regeneration Corps is hiring two new positions!
The Regeneration Corps:
Our mission is to empower youth with the knowledge to mitigate and respond to climate change and its constituent impacts, while building community resilience and strengthening local food systems. Through a Just Transition framework, we teach the intersections of Regenerative Agriculture, Climate Change Resilience, and Racial & Social Justice.
As a learning movement for land justice we enable students to earn credit through the Flexible Pathways program in the following areas:
- Just Transition
- Regenerative Agriculture
- Racial Justice
- Climate Mitigation & Adaptation
- Community Organizing & Service-based Projects
- Youth Engagement & Leadership
- Food & Land Sovereignty
Our model presents regenerative food systems as a key element of addressing climate change and socio-economic resilience. Our scholastic and organizational partners train participants in agricultural literacy, community organizing, social justice, and a broad spectrum of hands-on and place-based content. This is an opportunity for youth to earn credit and/or satisfy proficiency based learning requirements and further academic studies while building life skills and a regenerative future across the region. We are dedicated to working with schools and students to make sure that this program is accessible to all by helping to overcome obstacles to participation on a case-by-case basis.
How We Work:
We are a horizontally organized collective that is working to dismantle dominant systems of oppression. We do that by sharing power, decision making and acknowledging that regardless of the role we have in the collective, all are equal and valuable. We acknowledge the places where we hold privilege whether it is in race, class, gender, creed, learning style, longevity with the collective, social capital and otherwise. We can not do this work without each other; we uplift everyone for what they bring. When we speak of our successes, we honor all those that come before us and after us in the work for liberation. We base our work on love for each other and Earth.
