Stage 3: Outreach, Service and Community Impact Development
In this stage, CCC participants will be able to take what they’ve learned in the first two stages and incorporate that knowledge into meaningful community outreach and impactful service projects. From developing pollinator education programs for the classroom to hosting informative podcasts that expose new audiences to discussions on the top environmental issues of the day, these projects are developed and delivered by CCC participants with the goal of having a positive impact on both their home communities and Canada. Explore every completed CCC project here to see the impact our program is having across Canada and to get inspiration for how you can better your community and local wildlife.
