It Just Makes Sense
Louisiana Green Corps connects motivated job seekers with employers who need skilled labor — in a city that urgently needs infrastructure building, maintenance, and resilience.
Our Approach
Louisiana Green Corps operates at the intersections of youth development, workforce development, and climate resilience.
Our impact starts with the individual. We provide job seekers facing employment barriers with paid training experience, industry-recognized credentials, personalized coaching and case management, and job placement assistance through a growing network of employer partners.
Our impact goes beyond individual Corps members. It reaches their families, strengthens communities through the projects they complete, and builds a stronger local economy and a more resilient region by developing the next generation of green-sector leaders.
