Urban Corps of San Diego County

Your donation will help us serve young adults all across San Diego County!

Founded in 1989, Urban Corps of San Diego County is a state-certified conservation corps and non-profit. 

Our mission is to give young adults ages 18-26 the unique opportunity to earn their high school diploma while receiving paid job training working on projects that benefit the community.

Corpsmembers attend the Corps' on-site charter school one day a week to earn their high school diploma and work four days a week learning real world job skills on projects such as recycling, urban forestry, construction and graffiti removal to earn a paycheck.

In addition, our Corpsmember Development Department assists Corpsmembers with life-skills services including driver's licenses, job certifications, resumes, interview preparation and job and college applications.

With your donation, we can continue helping Corpsmembers succeed and thrive!
