Founded in 1989, UHP is dedicated to building multicultural urban environmental leadership for socially just, ecologically sustainable communities in the San Francisco Bay Area. At the metropolitan regional scale, UHP has assisted organizations working on environmental justice issues, health, food security, recycling, energy, military base conversion, arts and culture, education, immigration and population, and parks and open space. UHP organized the San Francisco Bay Area Brownfields Working Group to build a regional, community-driven agenda for brownfields. The Working Group is bringing together communities usually marginalized from the policy-making and implementation processes and formulating criteria for brownfields redevelopment. A community resource guide on brownfields revitalization and environmental justice is available from UHP.
