ORGANIZATIONAL BACKGROUND

Since 1984, Northwest Youth Corps (NYC), a non-profit organization, has given tens of thousands of youth and young adults opportunities to learn, grow, and experience success. Through partnerships with conservation agencies, youth and young adults gain the personal and professional skills needed to carry out a variety of stewardship projects, from which they can earn a stipend, high school credit, and/or an AmeriCorps educational award. More importantly, these young people gain skills needed to become economically and socially self-sufficient, benefit their communities as citizen stewards, and recognize that they can make a positive difference. NYC also operates an accredited charter school, internship program, and the Idaho Conservation Corps (ICC). TRCS Northwest Youth Corps' (NYC) Twin Rivers Charter School (TRCS) is an accredited school for youth in grades 8-12+. TRCS employs a cooperative, team-based format, in which staff engage students in hands-on learning that combines classroom instruction with the completion of conservation projects, field study assignments, and outdoor recreation activities. Students spend equal amounts of time in and out of the classroom and staff will strive to ensure conservation projects are complementary and integrated. School curricula include science, math, language arts and social studies with an emphasis on resource management, conservation and environmental studies. Students earn high school credit toward a diploma. At Twin Rivers Charter School we believe that Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice are integral to, and inseparable from, the learning process. That means purposefully structuring educational opportunities that challenge systems of power and privilege that work to the benefit of some and to the detriment of others. We aspire to transcend anti-discrimination policies to create environments where students' unique histories, cultures, languages, families, and selves are actively and sustainably engaged as assets that inform collective learning. We also realize that we have much work to do to achieve these goals and while they are aspirational we remain dedicated to the journey. Our work is not ahistorical and, in fact, we have and continue to perpetuate systems of power and privilege. As an educational institution we dedicate ourselves to continued growth and learning, to taking action to remediate our harm done, and to be accountable as a system and as individuals when we do harm again. We do this with humility, respect, and an understanding that doing so represents our greatest opportunity to achieve our shared goals.

Teachers also plan and facilitate residential "spikes", camping trips that combine fun, education, community, conservation work, and teambuilding.
