Material Reuse Deep Dive Forums
NERC, with the assistance of a Planning Committee of reuse practitioners from around the country are in the process of planning a series of free, quarterly Deep Dive Forums. These virtual discussions will focus on the role of material reuse organizations in working with and building the resiliency of local communities. The presenters to be featured will talk in-depth about the programs they’ve developed to provide resources and serve the needs of residents, work toward policy solutions, and create economically viable systems.
