While Groundwork El Paso is its own non-profit, it is also one of 15 Groundwork programs across the country with support from the Environmental Protection Agency Brownfield Program and the National Park Services Rivers & Trails.  Other programs are in communities from San Diego, California to Providence, Rhode Island.  This national network is based on the successful Groundwork movement in the Great Britain, where more than 50 Groundwork Trusts operate from Northern Ireland to London.
