Altia Supports Creating Jobs for Adults with Autism

Altia CEO, Mike Juran, recently learned about an impressive, local “social enterprise” called Blue Star Recyclers, a non-profit organization with locations in Colorado Springs, Denver, and Boulder. Their mission is two-fold: recycle electronic waste ethically and create jobs for people with autism and other disabilities.

Recycling of computers alone offers a significant impact on the economy. For every 10,000 tons of computer waste processed, 296 new jobs are created per year. Currently only 15-20 percent of global e-waste is recycled – so there is tremendous opportunity for growth in this area. With that mind, it’s easy to see why Blue Star has gained so much traction and support since they were founded in 2009.
