Welcome! The Chicago Conservation Corps (C3) is a project of the City of Chicago Department of Transportation. Click here to get more information from the main City of Chicago website.
Already blogging someplace else? Please link to us! And if you’re blogging Green City Living, we’d like to link to you! Let’s work together.
Origin and Purpose: This blog is a product of the Chicago Conservation Corps leadership training class, first cohort, May and June, 2006.
The purpose of the C3 blog is to make the work and resources of the program more visible and accessible to C3 leaders, friends, colleagues and anyone else throughout the City interested in joining us in C3 learning and doing.
Gentle Moderation: Whenever we get more than a few humans posting into (and actively owning) the same small online space, there’s bound to be some technical glitches and messes. The administrators, named above (and other who might grow into that role over time), will do whatever they can — and as gently as they can — to adjust the content, format, and guidelines like these to help keep this place easy to read and use. Please feel free to contact us if we do anything that makes a mess of your work and understand that we’re also learning our way into this project.
Please contact us by email or at 312-743-9283, if you have any questions. Thank you for checking us out!
