Green Opportunities

Green Opportunities connects youth and adults from low wealth neighborhoods to sustained employment opportunities that support families and improve community and environmental health. We prepare people for meaningful jobs that support families and improve community and environmental health and we accomplish this work through four social impact strategies: 1) A technical and life skills training and job placement program featuring technical certifications, basic education and ongoing case management; 2) GO owned or affiliated social enterprises that create jobs, generate program-supporting revenues and provide additional on-the-job training and living wage job opportunities for training graduates; 3) Community engagement that bolsters existing capacity through effective partnerships and youth engagement; and 4) Strategic outreach designed to educate and activate the greater community to support our programs and promote meaningful change.
