LEED ND Practitioner Needed for Neighborhood Initiative
ORGANIZATION: Global Green USA
Please visit the new page to apply.
Global Green is seeking help from a LEED ND practitioner for its Sustainable Neighborhoods program.
To date, Global Green has conducted LEED ND evaluations for over 29 neighborhoods. The standard has been used as a 'reference' for existing communities in order to support local capacity building, education and connection to resources and programs.
A summary of past projects can be found here:

We're currently working with one neighborhood and seeking to expand to 3 more this year. While LEED ND is not the only tool we'll be using this year, we'd like to conduct at least one assessment using this process and are seeking support from an external advisor for this process.
