Young Urban Activists
Reporter Cy Musiker profiles the East Bay Conservation Corps of Oakland, California, a model for President Clinton’s national service plan. The corps helps young people from 12 to 24 develop a spirit of hope and community involvement through urban environmental projects. In return for their labor, corps members get educational assistance, job training and a small stipend.
