Southcentral
The South Central Branch was formed during the summer of 2009 in an effort to establish a growing network of resources and educational opportunities for those interested in reducing the environmental impact of buildings from design and construction to occupancy.
Sustainable design and construction is becoming the building industry standard across the nation. Our organization in central Pennsylvania has access to many of the individuals who have help set national standards and trends in their sustainable fields.
The South Central Branch is run by volunteer members. It is groups of our volunteers that provide direction for this organization, support our members (individuals) and sponsors (companies), organize social and educational events, and reach out to help and promote green communities. As an organization, we are strong and effective because of the active volunteers who share the same mission and core values.
