Depave Chicago jobs and careers

About Depave Chicago

Depave programs work with communities to replace unused and abandoned paved areas (such as underutilized parking lots, paved school grounds, and empty sidewalks) with community gardens, pocket forests, street trees, pollinator and habitat gardens, and natural-play spaces. Depave Chicago is collaborative and hands-on. Everyone can participate in some way—by participating in the site design, volunteering during depaving and planting days, and/or contributing in other ways such as through financial support or materials for projects. Depave Chicago will be part of a network across the U.S., Canada, UK, and France, trained by Depave in Portland, Oregon. The Depave Chicago start-up is supported by a Resilient by Nature RxN grant from the Walder Foundation.
