Youth Outreach

jason

ISRI in partnership with JASON Learning has launched a recycling education campaign for students in kindergarten through 12th grade.  The campaign includes lesson plans, hands-on activities, and interactive web-based experiences, all focused on the importance of recycling and the scrap industry. 

This partnership presents a unique opportunity to not only spread the recycling message to youth, but also to inspire America’s students to think about careers in the scrap and recycling business, and give them the scientific and technical background that such jobs require.
