About Us
History
Groundwork USA was established in 2003 to support the growing network of Groundwork Trusts across the United States. It organizes national conferences and meetings, shares model programs, reviews emerging trends, conducts regular peer reviews, and compiles results from all of the trusts each year. Groundwork USA is based on the successful Groundwork movement in Great Britain, which has renewed hundreds of similar places in the United Kingdom since the early 1980s. Our primary partners are the EPA Brownfields Program and the National Park Service Rivers, Trails & Conservation Assistance Program.
