Angel Minor
CEO, Conservation Corps North Bay (CCNB)
Angela Minor is the Chief Executive Officer at Conservation Corps North Bay (CCNB) and has been with CCNB since 2017. Prior to her current role, she was a Nonprofit Finance and Business Consultant and spent 20 years as an Operations and Finance Executive at a large insurance company.
CCNB is a paid job training program that helps young adults navigate barriers to achieve their career goals while providing meaningful service to the environment and community members in Sonoma and Marin counties. CCNB's model is designed to meet the needs of vulnerable youth facing multiple barriers to employment.
Corpsmembers at CCNB simultaneously earn a paycheck, work toward their diploma, and receive supportive services. Four days each week are dedicated to paid job training on natural resources and zero waste projects. Members who have not yet graduated high school and/or need English language learning resources supplement this work experience through enrollment in John Muir Charter School. All corpsmembers receive one-on-one coaching, weekly skill development workshops, career exploration, and job placement support. This comprehensive suite of services acts as a launching pad for corpsmembers, preparing them to enter a living-wage career and become active members of the communities in which they live.
