Roughly 40 hours per week. Occasional evening/weekend hours may be necessary. Position Summary : Home ReSource is a nonprofit business with a commitment to reduce waste and build a more vibrant & sustainable local economy. We collect and sell reusable building materials, channel materials to those in need, provide green job training, offer reuse skill-building opportunities, and foster Missoula’s move toward Zero Waste. Every day, we keep tons of good materials out of the landfill and provide affordable building materials to the Western Montana community. Since opening in 2003, we’ve helped put thousands of tons of building materials back to work in Montana homes, offices, playgrounds, gardens, and dog and bird houses. Commitment to our mission and the desire to leverage our growing business profile in the community for positive change led us to launch our Community Sustainability Programs. Those programs include our education and community Zero Waste efforts, which address the need for more concrete actions to reduce waste and conserve resources and energy, expand awareness of what it takes to build a more resilient community, and deepen community understanding of the benefits of a Zero Waste economy. Our three consecutive Energy Corps service members have helped us begin meeting those needs by assisting in the following: Working with the Missoula City Council to draft the Missoula Zero Waste Resolution, which was adopted by council in February 2018; Working with the City of Missoula to develop and implement the ZERO by FIFTY: Missoula’s Pathway to Zero Waste planning process; Implementing and improving our ZWAP! Zero Waste Ambassadors Program, which has engaged more than 1,900 fifth graders in an interactive education program to knock out waste in Missoula; Launching and coordinating the Creative Reuse Division at the Western Montana Fair; Facilitating creative reuse activities with various Missoula youth groups; and Coordinating a Zero Waste planning process within Missoula County Public Schools (MCPS) as a concrete step for a district-wide move toward Zero Waste Energy Corps service members have been instrumental in providing us the capacity to develop the community partnerships necessary to build the will and capacity to cultivate and implement Zero Waste strategies and programs across Missoula. We look forward to work further with NCAT and Energy Corps Montana and in partnership with MCPS to continue to build on this momentum. Specific Position Responsibilities: The Energy Corps service member will act as primary coordinator and educator for the Home ReSource Zero Waste Ambassadors Program (ZWAP!) as well as play a coordinating role in the continuing MCPS Zero Waste effort.
