Center for Employment Oppertunites: Action Environmental Group

 

  

 

If you have been following our blog you already know that recently the Wall Street Journal covered the story of one of our employees Hector Morales. Hector's journey from being incarcerated to joining the Center of Employment Opportunities (CEO) to becoming a model member of our Action team is inspirational to say the least.

The Center for Employment Opportunities (CEO) is dedicated to providing immediate, effective and comprehensive employment services to men and women with recent criminal convictions. The highly structured and tightly supervised programs help participants regain the skills and confidence needed for a successful transition to a stable, productive life.

We are so proud to be apart of this program and support those who want to work find a fulfilling career. Above is a video with members of the Action team including Head of Safety Ken Levine and CEO Ron Bergamini. Enjoy!

Lou Gehrig Middle School

Recyling Contest at the Lou Gehrig Middle School

 

 

Action Environmental Group challenged four classes at the Lou Gehrig Middle School, IS 151 to develop innovative ways to teach other students and their community the value of recycling. The students created their own recycling “green machine”, a presentation to educate parents at parent teacher night, composed a song about recycling and even designated themselves to handle all recycling issues at the school.   Nicole Simon, ranked No.1 in her eight grade class, created the winning idea; a bake sale where recyclables were used as currency to purchase baked goods. Nicole won the contest for her class by designing this innovative recycling currency.

 

On September 18th, Action is taking 80 students to the Yankee Game where CEO Ron Bergamini, Principle Rivera and Nicole Simon will be apart of the opening ceremony.
