Program Responsibilities
Public Affairs
The Office of Public Affairs (OPA) is the voice of
CalRecycle, promoting the department’s programs and vision
through strategic marketing and communications, media relations,
public outreach, and education.
CalRecycle works to inspire and challenge Californians to
achieve the highest waste reduction, recycling, and reuse goals
in the nation; OPA works to further these goals by increasing
public understanding of waste management and recycling programs,
and suggesting appropriate steps to increase that awareness. OPA
accomplishes these objectives through a number of ongoing
activities and initiatives.
The office also monitors the department’s Ombudsman program, which provides conflict resolution assistance related to CalRecycle programs.
