Campus Compact is a national organization that supports community and civic engagement in higher education and works with colleges and universities all over the United States to leverage the power of higher education to support the greater good. The Campus Compact Campus Climate Action Corps is a climate action initiative focused on building the capacity of campuses and their community partners to affect behavioral and technical change leading to energy efficiency and improved at-risk ecosystems through the implementation of local solutions for underserved households and communities across three regions: the Midwest, Northeast, and Southeast. In these regions, teams of CCAC AmeriCorps Members will host campus and community environmental education events, conduct home and dorm energy assessments, including home energy assistance referrals, and implement low-tech home energy interventions to help advance public knowledge and increase motivation to conserve energy and reduce carbon emissions. CCAC AmeriCorps Members will also implement projects in underserved communities that enhance ecosystem health and leverage local volunteers to support CCAC environmental stewardship activities. We are currently recruiting for our host sites at Central Connecticut State University (CT), College of the Atlantic (ME), Lasell University (MA), Middlesex Community College (MA), Southern Maine Community College (ME), St. Lawrence University (NY), Stetson University (FL), and the University of Maine (ME).
Member Duties : Climate Action Advocates work closely with staff, their host site supervisor, CCAC AmeriCorps members, community partners, and campus staff and students to design and implement a Climate Action Plan. Climate Action Advocates serve as the team lead at their campus host site and will recruit and coordinate campus and community partners and volunteers to support CCAC activities. They will host community environmental education events, conduct home energy assessments, including home energy assistance referrals, and implement low-tech home energy interventions to help advance public knowledge and increase motivation to conserve energy and reduce carbon emissions.
