The Canadian Parks and Recreation Association (CPRA) has secured Government of Canada funding via Parks Canada to support a “green jobs” program for youth.
This program will provide direct financial support (via wage subsidies of up to 50%) to local governments (municipalities, Indigenous communities, etc) and other sector organizations. Youth must be between 15 and 30 years of age when employment begins.
What is a Green Job?
The definition of a "Green Job" is broad! They might include, but are not limited to:
trail maintenance
on the land programs
landscaping
camp leaders
planning and education
outdoor rinks
natural and cultural heritage
