Another Successful Summer Youth Employment Program!
This August, Tree Trust wrapped up another year of the SYEP. We are proud of all the hard work and progress made by our participants during their 9-week internships, and extend our hearty congratulations to all those who made this summer a success!  

Our individual internship program placed 112 participants at local businesses and nonprofits this summer. Four participants earned awards for outstanding performance in their work. You can view photos from these internships and graduations on our Facebook page. 

Tree Trust offers individual internships year-round. To learn more, visit our website. 

An additional 239 youth worked on a crew in our Youth Conservation Corps to complete environmental improvement projects. Of YCC participants, 46 had perfect attendance, and 30 received governor's awards for excellence. Crews completed 29 outdoor improvement projects around the Twin Cities! You can view more pictures from the summer on our Instagram or Facebook page! 

If you are or know an 18-24 year old interested in working on a crew, please see the article below about our Young Adult Conservation Corps!
