Youth Eco Internship Program

The Youth Eco Internship Program places people aged 15 to 30 from diverse backgrounds into paid internship opportunities within the non-profit and community services sector in Canada with a focus on the environment, community and women's services. These positions, offered in a wide range of organizations, will help young Canadians learn the skills required to gain and sustain future employment within the sector. This project is a collaboration between the YMCA and YWCA Canada, with funding provided by the Government of Canada's Economic Action Plan.

Through the Youth Eco Internship Program, you'll gain valuable paid work experience in the growing field of environmental and community employment.
During your internship, you'll establish a foundation of knowledge and skill that will put you a step ahead in the increasingly competitive and challenging job market.
