Program Support for Youth Climate Ambassadors Program

Formed in July 2014 as a part of the County Executive’s Office, the Sustainability Department strives to improve the sustainability of the County’s operations and the greater community through work that is designed to bring solutions today while solving for tomorrow. The Sustainability Department has programs to help the county both fight and prepare for climate change, ensure clean energy, water, and air, conserve resources for future generations through waste reduction, and support livable communities with affordable housing and infrastructure for biking, walking, and public transit. The San Mateo County Sustainability Department is seeking a partner to assist in the support and administration of the Youth Climate Ambassadors (YCA) Leadership Program. The YCA program is an award-winning knowledge-to-action program that brings together high school students from across San Mateo County to inspire future leaders in climate action. This program is managed by the Sustainability Department and San Mateo County Office of Education. The Sustainability Department is seeking an additional partner to support program administration who is based in the Bay Area, CA.
