|

Nonprofits are often the heart of community-driven transformation—and when it comes to brownfield redevelopment, their role is both powerful and essential.

In this third session of the Brownfield Curious series, we’ll dive into how nonprofits can lead, influence, and accelerate brownfield remediation and revitalization efforts. This webinar will highlight real-world challenges and solutions and showcase the unique strengths nonprofits bring to land reuse initiatives.

You’ll learn about the different cross-sector collaborators involved—government agencies, environmental professionals, funders, developers, and more—and how nonprofits can serve as effective project champions. We’ll explore strategies to build trust, navigate complex regulatory landscapes, and sustain long-term community engagement.

What you’ll gain

  • A clear understanding of the nonprofit’s role in brownfield redevelopment
  • Actionable strategies to manage projects, build coalitions, and secure funding
  • Inspiration from a case study of nonprofit-led success

Whether you’re just brownfield-curious or already involved in land reuse, this session will empower you to lead impactful change in your community.
