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.
