Meet the Team

Conservation Team

The Conservation Team focuses on preserving and transforming both people and places. Through creative recycling and reuse at the Appalachian ReUse Corridor & Hub, reimagination of dilapidated spaces and repurposed materials with the Reclaim Appalachia program, abandoned mineland reclamation, and renewable energy, they create opportunities for sustainability while embracing community training and involvement in every project.
