SO, WHAT IS GROUNDWORK COLORADO?

You can always go to http://www.groundworkcolorado.org/ to see what we are up to as an organization. We have several projects we work on in Colorado, aside from Take Charge!

Our various projects include transforming brownfields, providing energy audits and weatherization services, eliminating lead poisoning, promoting the use of alternative transportation, and many more!

The mission of Groundwork Colorado(GWC) is to bring about the sustained improvement of the physical environment and promote health and well-being through community-based partnerships and action. Our goals include:

To create collaborations among community and non-profit organizations, local government, businesses, and residents to improve the physical environment, while enhancing neighborhood assets and fostering community involvement and leadership.

To foster environmental justice by providing expertise and education on environmental health issues, providing opportunities for residents to develop environmental leadership and job skills, and improving the physical environment in low-income communities.
