Partner Spotlight: X-Cel Conservation Corps

RESTORATIONGREEN INFRASTRUCTURE
Written By Charles River

We want to take a moment to congratulate our partner, X-Cel Conservation Corps, on the release of its very impressive 2025 Program Report. X-Cel Conservation Corps breaks the cycle of poverty by preparing Boston youth for careers in water management and conservation that lead to economic self-sufficiency. Key components of the X-Cel Conservation Corps include workforce readiness development, paid conservation projects to improve water quality and build environmental resilience in Eastern Massachusetts, classes to prepare for wastewater operator license, and paid internships in the water management field.

We loved working with this year’s XCC crew members on green infrastructure, water quality assessment, habitat assessment, and culvert assessment.
