Inner City Green Team Recycling Initiative

Under Construction

The Inner City Green Team (ICGT) is a sustainable, scalable, and replicable recycling initiative operating within New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) developments. It provides a community-based, door-to-door recycling service designed to meet the specific challenges faced by public housing residents. The program includes education, direct collection of recyclables, behavioral incentives, and has expanded to include textile and food waste collection. It also creates jobs and fosters civic engagement, aiming to reach all NYCHA campuses across the five boroughs and establish a Climate Action Center.
