We’ve Hit 150 Local Groups + Affiliates in 40 States!🎉
Beyond Plastics launched our Local Groups and Affiliates program in February 2022 with the goal of building a stronger, more vibrant grassroots movement to tackle plastic pollution here in the United States. We are excited to announce that we have just hit another major milestone - we are now 150 Local Groups and Affiliates strong.💪🏽💪🏼💪🏿
From hosting documentary screenings and discussion panels, to organizing constituent meetings with elected officials to opposing chemical recycling facilities and plastic grass (aka synthetic turf) installations to advocating for reuse to getting plastics reduction legislation like Skip the Stuff bills and single-use plastic bag bans passed, and much more, Beyond Plastics Local Groups and Affiliate groups are not slowing down!
As we always say, the power of the grassroots is MIGHTY and we are grateful to all of the change-makers who have joined our expanding network! We can’t stop, won’t stop!
JOIN US TODAY!
If you are a part of an environmental or waste reduction non-profit organization that wants to start working on plastics reduction or deepen your existing work on plastics reduction, please consider joining our network as an affiliate. Alternatively, if you look at the map and don’t see a group in your area, we encourage you to reach out to learn more about starting your own Beyond Plastics Local Group.
Whether you would be joining as a Beyond Plastics Affiliate or starting a Local Group, we provide training and support to all the organizations and leaders in our network. Our next free, online grassroots advocacy training is coming up on September 7-12. Click here to learn more and register for this two-part training. And, if you’re already busy in September, we offer this training on a quarterly basis so there’s always another opportunity to get involved.
