“Other program services 4: environmental promoters program - the environmental promoter program was born out of multifamily residents' expressed frustration and dissatisfaction with their waste and recycling systems, and a desire to learn more and have a direct hand in improving those systems. In partnership with residents, metro, local governments, and community-based organizations, we provide trainings (based on popular education methodology) for interested residents to learn more about recycling, waste prevention, and healthy homes. They are then given the opportunity to be paid to create their own self-identified projects and outreach to share this information with their own communities. Our team provides support, guidance, and connections to resources to help promoters complete their projects and/or keep them going in the community indefinitely! Other program services 5: multifamily outreach program - recyling and trash at mutlifamily enclosures is often inadequate and confusing! Our goals are to help make it more effective and equitable from the perspective of community members. Working with environmental promoters, we collavorate with the city of greasham and the city of portland to provide outreach about recycling and waste prevention to multifamily housing sites in east multnomah county, through a community-based lense. This includes support with recycling outreach and education, bulky and food waste reduction, collection events, and more. Other program services 6: g.l.i.t.t.e.r. - ground score's g.l.i.t.t.e.r. Provides litter collection and tentside waste collection services for houseless camps across the portland metro region. The program name was sourced by workers and stands for ground score leading inclusively together through environmental recovery.”
