Welcome to the Spring 2023 Marion Resourcers Movement training application! Marion County Environmental Services is pleased to offer residents a free six-week course designed to develop the next group of sustainability leaders!
The new volunteer program will educate participants about sustainable materials management (life cycle impacts of our stuff) while supporting community sustainability efforts aimed at waste reduction locally.
