Groundwork supports young people living in high-poverty urban communities by helping them develop their strengths, skills, talents, and competencies through experiential learning and work programs. The organization is based in East New York, a resource-limited area in eastern Brooklyn, and aims to expand opportunities so youth from these neighborhoods have comparable prospects to those elsewhere. It operates within the individual and family services sector, emphasizing youth development through hands-on learning and work-based experiences. The organization defines a good life in terms of happiness, financial and physical security, and the ability to make meaningful life choices, and it seeks to help participants reach those outcomes. Its work targets young people in urban poverty contexts, offering experiential learning and work programs to build skills and opportunity, and the group is a small to mid-sized nonprofit based in Brooklyn.
