Educational Priorities 

The Stewardship Action Foundation has established itself as a leader in educational initiatives focused on advancing a circular economy, environmental stewardship, and extended producer responsibility. SAF’s 2025 priority efforts will focus on Truth in Labeling, Packaging, Critical Minerals, Household Hazardous Waste, and advancing reuse, recycling, and recycled sustainability efforts. Collaboration is at the heart of our work. We actively seek partnerships to foster innovation, share best practices, and drive collective action towards a more responsible and circular economy.
