Curt is the National Youth Programs Director for Groundwork USA, an environmental nonprofit created by the National Park Service and Environmental Protection Agency, and he oversees youth development and career programs in 20 states. Groundwork’s mission is to raise the capacity and collaborative ability of communities to meet their own environmental challenges, and Curt works to engage the next generation in this goal.
