MEP/Honoring the Earth Partnership

The Honoring the Earth Partnership (HTE) partnered with four American Indian serving organizations and a multicultural early learning program Way to Go. HTE provided 14 presentations reaching 446 families that included action step strategies to reduce toxicity and waste in participants’ homes including recycling, identifying toxins, safe disposal and making non-toxic alternatives including non-toxic cleaners and learning about integrated pest management techniques. Over 60% of the participants committed to changing their behaviors at home after the presentations. HTE will continue partnering with organizations on these topics and may also begin promoting waste reduction and recycling at pow-wows in the future.
