Our Mission
Partnering to make recycling strong through economic and environmentally sound solutions.
The Northeast Resource Recovery Association (NRRA) is the oldest and largest cooperative-model recycling nonprofit in the United States. NRRA partners with over 450 municipalities, businesses, and individuals throughout New England to make recycling strong through economic and environmentally sound solutions. As one of only a handful of nonprofits in the country that enables communities to manage their own recycling programs by connecting them with end markets for recyclables, NRRA supports small, rural communities across New Hampshire, Vermont, and Massachusetts. Founded in 1981, NRRA has a deep expertise in the recycling markets, and in partnership with our members, we share that information through education, technical assistance, and cooperative marketing.
Our Organizational Values
Organizational values are the guiding principles for which we stand. These organizational values were developed by NRRA staff to act as a North Star to help us make decisions – hiring, program expansion, and day-to-day decisions. These values are integral to how our work is carried out and are also boundaries by which NRRA is not willing to compromise. Organizational values apply to all areas of the organization and to all employees.
