WillBridge Recycling Program

May of 2013 WillBridge launched WillBridge Recycling Program.  It is an exciting new venture with unlimited possibilities as a program for the agency. The goal of the program is four-fold: (1) a catalyst to share the mission of WillBridge (2) help the agency become more financially self-sufficient (3) create jobs for WillBridge residents not able to return to a mainstream work environment (4) assist Santa Barbara to reach and maintain the 75% recycling goal set forth in AB 341, the California State ordinance approved in July 2012.

WillBridge Recycling Program is a certified Community Service Program through California State CalRecycle Beverage & Container Program. Students or individuals that are required to complete community service hours can receive hours by turning in recycle to WillBridge.
