Have you been to our electronics recycling drop-off? We wanted to share this email we received from someone who came by the drop-off last week! "Just wanted to give a shout out to Adrian Rice for his help trying to get my truck started this past Monday. After dropping off a broken LED TV, my truck went completely dead. Adrian helped me try to jump start it (no response) and a few other things before it finally started and I was able to be on my way. I was not aware of RecycleForce before this week - I appreciate the work that you are doing. I am particularly grateful that you gave me a place to properly dispose of the TV. I don't know what I would have done otherwise."

About us
A cleaner environment. A stronger workforce. RecycleForce, a 501(c)3 organization, is a social enterprise offering some of the most comprehensive and innovative recycling services around while providing life-changing workforce training to formerly incarcerated individuals. Taking the electronic waste and other recyclables provided by residents and corporate partners, RecycleForce deconstructs these items, recycles the materials and disposes of the waste safely and cleanly. The scrap metals and other reusable materials collected in this process are then sold to help pay for job training programs and employment opportunities for formerly incarcerated men and women in order to support their re-entry back into society. Creating jobs and changing lives. RecycleForce is a prime example of how social causes can be brought together to have a broader community impact. Using the revenue generated by its recycling business, RecycleForce is helping formerly incarcerated individuals rebuild their lives by providing gainful employment and comprehensive social services. RecycleForce helps ex-offenders break down the barriers to employment by providing transitional jobs for up to six months, as well as comprehensive services designed to get their lives back on track. The RecycleForce model offers program participants an integrated focus on jobs skills, character development and personal counseling. This “wrap-around” approach greatly increases the chance of sustained future employment and decreases the instances of re-offending. The RecycleForce program extends well beyond the six-month transitional job opportunity. By working with industry partners and employers committed to hiring ex-offenders, RecycleForce helps facilitate the transition for program participants from temporary work to full-time, gainful employment.
