Making Green Jobs Work for You

This workshop will highlight the environmental justice components and innovations of EPA's Brownfield's Programs that have successfully established the capacity to train and employ community members in Green Jobs associated with clean-ups of contaminated sites, including elements that influence watershed health. Participants will gain a better understanding of utilizing green job programs for organizational success, more knowledge about federal green jobs programs and how it relates to improving watershed health and practical steps to take to start a green jobs partnership/program.

Presenters: Rebecca Dils, EPA Wetlands HQ; Heather McMann, Groundwork Lawrence; Joe Bruss
