Sierra Service Project's (SSP) mission is, "Building faith and strengthening communities through service to others." Sierra Service Project’s purpose is to build strong connections and resilience among communities, by equipping volunteers in home repair skills and community-based projects. Making necessary home repairs accessible to historically underserved residents allows communities to thrive and individuals to safely age in place. Inherent in the purpose is the specific involvement of youth and young adult volunteers. During our summer program each year, young adult staff teams live and work together in various locations throughout the Western United States. These teams host about 300 volunteers in each partner community to enact impactful service-learning projects in collaboration with local leaders. Together, their work results in over 100 safer, drier, and more comfortable homes and community centers.
