**Named a USA Top Workplace in 2023**
For a century, National Parks Conservation Association has been a powerful independent voice working to strengthen and protect America's favorite places. Through our nationwide network of offices and with our nearly 1.6 million members and supporters, we speak up for our more than 400 landscapes, seashores, cultural and historic places--whether in communities or on Capitol Hill. And we are inspiring the next generation of national park visitors to care for them just as much as we do.
PaintCare Inc., a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, represents paint manufacturers (paint producers) to plan and operate paint stewardship programs in U.S. states and jurisdictions that pass paint stewardship laws.
PaintCare is a program of the American Coatings Association (ACA) a membership-based trade association of the paint manufacturing industry. Working through the Paint Producer Stewardship Initiative (PPSI) facilitated by the Product Stewardship Institute (PSI), ACA supported the passage of the nation’s first paint stewardship law in Oregon and established PaintCare in 2009.
Since then, PaintCare has launched programs across the country following the passage of similar laws in California, Colorado, Connecticut, the District of Columbia, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington.
In states where PaintCare operates, we encourage households and businesses to take their unwanted, leftover paint to a PaintCare drop-off site. Most sites are paint retailers, which are convenient locations open year-round and seven days a week. Across the PaintCare programs, there are more than 3,000 drop-off sites, most of which are paint retailers.
