About Groundwork:
Founded in 2002, Groundwork provides a continuum of services designed to support children and families and strengthen communities. Our programs are offered across multiple sites in East New York and Bedford Stuyvesant. We reach over 3,500 families each year that live in or close to six public housing developments in central and eastern Brooklyn. Our after-school and summer programs for children give them the skills and confidence they need to become engaged citizens. Our college preparation programs for teenagers teach youth to become leaders while guiding them to success in academics and in life. Our programs for adults offer parents and other community members the resources they need to support their families and build organized community power.
We believe that this combination of education, support and empowerment helps families transform their lives and their communities.
