What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

Tongass Tiny Home

The Tongass Tiny Home was built by students enrolled in the Advanced Construction class offered through the vocational education program at Sitka High School (SHS). The custom place-based curriculum provides students with the opportunity to build valuable technical skill-sets, while exploring potential pathways to success in the local economy.By purchasing local wood, this project is strengthening relationships between Alaskan builders and Alaskan lumber suppliers to facilitate intra-region commerce. Once complete, the Tiny Home will be up for sale and the funds reinvested in a new construction project at SHS.

Adolescents

SCS is a founding member of the Sustainable Southeast Partnership (SSP). SSP is a diverse network of organizations working together to meet the challenge of sustainable community development in Southeast Alaska. It is our collective mission to empower rural Alaskan communities to reach cultural, ecological, and economic prosperity.

Population(s) Served
Adults

Every Wednesday, our Fish to Schools Program brings wild, locally-caught fish to the plates of all kids in Sitka schools. SCS produced an accompanying Stream to Plate curriculum guide for teachers so that students can learn the story and science behind their food. In addition, SCS created a guide for other communities interested in implementing a similar program.
