WEBINAR DETAILS
  • About
    Learn how two great projects are empowering community-based organizations to become better recyclers and environmental promoters.

    The session will also discuss how Trash for Peace and Metro implement their Environmental Promoters program by training and hiring residents that live on multifamily housing sites in Multnomah County. The session will also cover how both provide outreach, engagement, and implementation of their programs, involving environmental justice.
