Pittsburgh's Conservation Leadership Corps (CLC), is seeking new members who are interested in adventure, meeting new people, having fun, and learning about conservation in the Pittsburgh community.

The SCA has teamed up with City Charter High School to complement City High's "Science and Sustainability" curriculum. The program, led by a full-time SCA Americorps volunteer and a 10th grade science teacher at City High, provides high school students with a unique opportunity to truly understand their local environment by combining in-class lessons with out-of-class experience. Together the SCA and City Charter High coordinate dynamic activities such as service projects and field trips in the immediate Pittsburgh community that are relevant to the students' learning.

SCA Three Rivers co-sponsored the Fourth Annual MLK Day in the Park celebration with Venture Outdoors. 

On August 26, the last SCA Three Rivers Students of the summer left the field to get ready for the approaching school year.
