As a local part of USGBC’s larger network to help advance sustainability worldwide, we help to fulfill USGBC’s mission by providing educational and volunteer opportunities to grow our network in the state. Our collective impact extends across the state with unique activities organized by our members in their communities that inspire action, grow knowledge, build networks and celebrate leadership. Our goal is to transform the way our buildings and communities are designed, built, and operated.
