AmeriCorps Member of the Month - Will McElligott

Will served with the Canyon Country Youth Corps (CCYC) from 2017 - 2019. During his time with CCYC Will has served as a crew member, crew leader, and field boss.
Will is the type of person that never stops working hard when the job needs to get done. Through his time at CCYC, Will found a way to mentor others to work hard through his actions and ability to step up or step back, when needed.Will is truly a reason for CCYC’s success the last few seasons and we wish him all the best as he continues to pursue a career in Natural Resource Management.
