#CaliforniansForAll College Corps

In partnership with #CaliforniansForAll College Corps, College Corps at Shasta College will provide up to 60 college students with service opportunities in areas of community need such as K-12 schools, food banks/pantries or climate action organizations.   

The College Corps program has three core goals:

  • Goal 1: Engage Shasta College students in meaningful service opportunities that build career pathways, leadership skills and civic responsibility.
  • Goal 2: Help students from diverse backgrounds graduate college on time and with less debt.
