SolarCorps

In honor of AmeriCorps Week, March 8-14, 2020, we asked a former SolarCorps Fellow about their year of service and how it has influenced their career today. Read on for our interview with Wyatt Atkinson, who served as a SolarCorps Construction Fellow with GRID North Coast and now leads our Tribal Program as the Construction Manager.

The GRID team was pleased to participate for the third year in a row in the third annual Yolo County Office of Education STEM for Girls event, a 1-day program designed to inspire girls ages 10-12 in the Yolo County school district to pursue interests in STEM fields, which include topics related to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). GRID was represented at the event by three female staff members from our Operations and Construction departments, who conducted three 45 min workshops on the exciting world of solar power.
