Abstract:
Last summer, nine youths from the North Carolina Youth Conservation Corps helped to clear forest trails in Uwharrie National Forest near Asheboro. NCYCC crews have put in hundreds of hours to improve and expand access to North Carolina’s protected natural areas since the program was created in 2013. The program also mentors youth, focusing especially on those who are neither in school nor working through the Opportunity Youth Service Initiatives. The benefits the group provides the state and the positive work the group has done for its youth are detailed.
