Through our structured internship matching program — developed in close alignment with City of Houston (CoH) and Office of Sustainability and Houston Climate Action Plan (H-CAP) goals — our objective is to link underrepresented Houston youth with meaningful renewable energy internships.
The end goal is to help underrepresented Houston youth find in the renewable energy sector, mentorships and careers full of learning and growth. This will ensure not only economic prosperity, but also ensure diverse Houston youth have a central voice in the renewable energy transition — a transition that will increase environmental equity and counter climate change.
