About

Founded in 1987, the SJCC has provided more than 17,000 "at-risk" disadvantaged young men and women with academic education, hands-on learning, and development of basic skills. These skills include leadership, communication, computer literacy, and employment training which will help them to advance and excel in their future and careers. The SJCC offers secondary education courses through its on-site charter school and vocational education and job training through its Projects and Recycling Departments. SJCC also offers their YouthBuild program for its students which combines academics with vocational training and experience in construction trades. The San Jose Conservation Corps & Charter School is a non-profit organization that provides youth with a quality high school education and teaches valuable work and life skills that empower them to become responsible, productive, and caring citizens.

The San Jose Conservation Corps has five divisions: the Charter School/Academy, Environmental Projects, Recycling, Youth Build, and Youth Corps.
