The Northwest Area Foundation will sponsor the 2006 Grassroots & Groundwork Conference to examine what communities are doing to get out of and stay out of poverty.

Conference presenters are nationally recognized, as well as those who work behind the scenes in their communities. All focus on long-term poverty reduction. This conference promises a wealth of practical strategies and tools, emerging ideas in the field, connections, and conversations to take back to your own community.
