In just three years, the Grassroots & Groundwork conference has become a “must attend” event for service providers, educators, researchers, private citizens, policy-makers, business and civic leaders, faith leaders and others – anyone searching for proven or emerging community-focused approaches to reduce poverty long term.
Grassroots & Groundwork offers a range of opportunities for learning, sharing, questioning and connecting. From smaller, more intimate 70-minute break-out sessions on community-focused models and tools for reducing poverty to the larger, hands-on, half-day Community-Builder Institute, Grassroots & Groundwork spotlights practical solutions in a variety of venues.
During the conference, attendees can view powerful film documentaries on poverty in America. An Exhibit Hall showcases a variety of online, interactive tools communities can use to reduce poverty and promote prosperity. Outstanding keynote speakers examine poverty and community building in ways that are thought-provoking and inspiring.
The conference is located in south Minneapolis, just 10 minutes from the Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport and numerous local attractions.
Don’t miss this opportunity to share, learn and connect!
