City of San Rafael/Marin Conservation Corps
Summer Program 1992
1 Introduction: It ie the Intent of the city of San Rafael and the Marin
Conservation Corps to provide a work/training program lasting eight
weeks for two 10 person crews during the summer. One crew will be
comprised of ten 16-18 year old San Rafael students. These teenagers
will be identified by the Youth Services Department of the San Rafael
Police Department, and will work under the direction and supervision of a
Marin Conservation Corps (MCC) Supervisor doing work projects in San
Rafael, identified by the San Rafael Department of Public Works. The
other crew available to the city to work on San Rafael projects will be an
existing MCC crew consisting of ten 'young adults 18-26 years old.
MCC operates a year round program for young adults (ages 18-26) in Marin
county. The primary goal of the program is to provide meaningful job
training and experience coupled with continuing education to enhance the
participants employability in the future. Additionally, it is our intent to
provide needed resource conservation work to -Marin county. The
traditional MCC progam is designed for one year of participation. Upon
their "graduation° corpsmembers are assisted in their transition, whether
it be to permanent employment or entry into an educational institution.
This year MCC celebrates its tenth anniversary, 1982-1992. With ten
years of increasingly successful program development, we now want to
expand our services and once again offer a summer program to a slightly
younger age group --high school age teens. This summer's progam is a
pilot for a significant summer component in the years to come. In close
association with the City of San Rafael, we will add a high school age
crew of ten and deploy an existing crew of ten to work on maintenance
projects exclusively in San Rafael.
II Program Design: While both summer crews will be working in
projects identified by the city, they will be organized in slightly different
ways to accommodate the different needs of the age groups. The older,
existing crew will retain their usual schedule. They will work Monday
through Thursday from 7am-3:30pm and spend Fridays in classes at the
MCC center. MCC corpsmembers are paid for the 32 hours per week that
they are in the field working. They are required to attend classes on
Friday and are not paid for this time.
The younger, high school age crew will work Monday tnrough Friday from
8:00am-4:30pm. They too will have an unpaid education component for an
hour and a half each day at the work site. This will provide 32 1/2 hours
of paid employment and 7 1/2 hours of unpaid education. Though we are
envisioning a slightly different program for the teenage crew --different
work hours, education at the work site, and a different educational
program --the two crews will be very similar in terms of paid hours of
work and meaningful education.
The teenage program will run for eight weeks from July 6, 1992 through
August 28, 1992. Qualified candidates must be available to work for the
entire eight weeks. Orientation will be conducted at the MCC facility --
446A West Francisco Blvd. San Rafael on Wednesday July 1, 1992 at
10:00am. Qualified candidates will need to present a work permit, social
security card and a picture identification at the time of orientation.
Candidates need no experience, but must be willing and able to do outdoor
physical labor. Participants selected will earn $6.00/hour. They will be
required to provide their own transportation to the facility every morning
(Monday through Friday), but MCC will provide transportation to the job
site and back to the center each day. Participants will be required to
wear work boots with a Vibram sole or other good gripping and work in
blue jeans and an MCC shirt each day. Participants will be required to
bring their own lunch and snacks each day. They will also be required to
abide by MCC's policies, rules and regulations.
III Goals: We have several important goals for this program. First, we
plan to offer participants an eight week disciplined and instructive work
environment. This will not only provide them with work experience and
training but a paycheck as well. Secondly, participants will have exposure
to an environmental education program tailored to their workday. By
increasing their awareness of environmental issues, both locally and
globally, we hope to develop citizens who are better educated and more
involved in their community. Thirdly, we expect to achieve significant
results in the maintenance and improvement of San Rafael's parks and
public lands. Lastly, it is our hope that this small program will serve as a
new beginning to reinstate a larger summer component for Marin County
teenagers in the years to come.
