A Message from Freeholder Chairman Alexander Mirabella
Welcome to the Union County Green Connection. This year, we have embarked on a new set of programs called Go Green II. A knowledgeable workforce is the key to progress, so we will focus on helping county residents develop careers in the emerging green economy through partnerships with Kean University, Union County College and Union County Vo-Tech Schools. We also hope that the Green Connection will provide you with budget-friendly information to help your household, workplace, or business save money. Along with the entire Union County family, we are looking forward to working with you to make our communities greener and healthier.
