Groundworks Collaborative to Rebuild Former South Main Drop-In Center as Program Offices

by Not Signed In | Town News

BRATTLEBORO, VT—As the third and final phase of Groundworks Collaborative’s South Main Street capital project, the former Groundworks Drop-In Center at 60 South Main Street will be deconstructed this fall in preparation for the construction of a new building in its place.  The design will allow for adequate space for Groundworks’ growing program staff, many of whom have worked without offices since the start of the pandemic. 

The new 60 South Main Street building will be home to Groundworks’ Case Management team, Representative Payee program, and the team of embedded providers from Brattleboro Memorial Hospital, the Brattleboro Retreat, and HCRS—known as Healthworks.
