What’s the big deal about recycling?
Join us to find out!
The next two years are critical for recycling in Michigan. With an eye toward economic development and environmental stewardship, Michigan communities, businesses, industry and institutions are actively seeking information, contacts, and advice about best end-of-life materials management practices that will enable them to meet their own and collective recycling and sustainability goals. The Michigan Recycling Coalition Annual Conference provides information, education, tours, training, and networking opportunities for hundreds of public and private sector professionals across the state.
The Department of Environmental Quality will also host the Governor’s Recycling Summit in conjunction with the MRC’s 35th Annual Conference. Check out the complete program for the 2017 Michigan Recycling Coalition Conference & Governor’s Recycling Summit, the largest showcase for and gathering about recycling issues in Michigan.
Learn more at the events about the recent Governor’s Recycling Council and Solid Waste and Sustainability Advisory Panel reports and recommendations released on Monday.
Learn about bringing sustainability goals to life, why and how to expand composting from yard waste to food waste, how to make the choice to recycle easy, how to sell recycling, how to plan for good program and progress, how to use analytics to understand your audience, understand the impact of recycling and composting markets on programs, and so much more.
Meet recycling and composting service providers in our Exhibition Hall and join us for the great networking events we have planned.

The next Michigan Health Policy Forum will be held on Monday, May 1, 2017. The topic will be New Directions in Health Policy: the First 100 days of the Trump Administration.
We are pleased to announce that our keynote speaker will be Dr. Gail Wilensky, Senior Fellow at Project HOPE and former senior health and welfare adviser to President George H.W. Bush.
As the Trump Administration begins to coalesce, there are rumors, discussions and campaign promises about changes that will be made in our healthcare delivery/financing systems. The President elect has promised to repeal and potentially replace the Affordable Care Act and members of Congress have promised to "privatize" Medicare and convert Medicaid to a block grant program. The Michigan Health Policy Forum will review the first 100 days of the Trump Administration, distinguish the rumors from the facts, and explore the impact that these actions will have on Michigan.
Please save the date of May 1, 2017. We will send you a formal invitation/registration once the Michigan reactor panel has been confirmed.
