The Sierra Student Conservationists




This organization is the student run branch of the Sierra Club.It is an activist network of thousands of young people through the United States and Canada. The SSC is the only national, student-run grassroots network working within a major environmental organization to move the student agenda.

This organization was founded in 1991 by a 17 year old Sierra Club member in Los Angeles named Adam Werbach. He and the other members band together to achieve common goals such as:

(1)Initiating

and organizing national, regional, and local issues campaigns

(2)Uniting

individuals, students, campus groups, and environmental organizations in efforts to achieve change.

(3)Dedication

to making students the most effective and respective activists they can be.

(4)Registering

thousands of new voters in hopes to give students a political voice.

(5)Commitment

to ethnic and cultural diversity
