Finding Earth Works…
is committed to building links between adult literacy and English-language learners and the exciting opportunities that the growing green economy holds for meaningful careers with family-sustaining wages.

To do this, Finding Earth Works offers:
  • training workshops for program staff and adult learners on getting ready for the green economy
  • program development expertise in the areas of green content and green job readiness
  • group facilitation to create collaborative training partnerships
  • strategic planning and program management
  • grant writing to secure funds for green jobs education and training

The goal? To give you strategies and techniques for integrating green economy content into your programs and curricula while helping to meet the education and training goals of “your clients.”

Finding Earth Works is the only workforce development consultancy in the Northeast region that explicitly focuses on connecting adult basic learners to opportunities in the growing green economy.
