SCA's National Conservation Center is located on 50 scenic acres along the banks of the Connecticut River in Charlestown, NH.
SCA recently celebrated the completion of its new, green Center for Conservation Service building at the Charlestown site. In addition to providing additional office space for the growing SCA staff, the new LEED-certified building will host overnight conservation service trainings and serve as a convening venue for SCA alumni, students, educators and youth and conservation organizations. It embodies the spirit of conservation – using green technology to reduce waste, resource depletion and pollution. It will support the emerging generations of conservation leaders by providing healthy gathering places for collaborative, hands-on learning.
