CACRC

Do you ever wonder what happens to your data when you bring it to us for recycling?

CACRC is a certified ITAD provider, which stands for Information Technology Asset Disposition. In simple terms, ITAD is the professional process of handling retired technology in a secure, documented, and responsible way. It includes collection, tracking, data destruction, testing, refurbishment, resale, donation, and recycling. Done correctly, ITAD helps organizations protect sensitive information while also extending the life of valuable technology whenever possible.

For CACRC, this work is guided by industry standards, certification requirements, and a deep commitment to trust.

CACRC has maintained R2 and RIOS certifications since 2012. R2v3 is a globally recognized electronics reuse and recycling standard that includes requirements for responsible management of used electronics, environmental protection, worker safety, and data security. RIOS, the Recycling Industry Operating Standard, is designed specifically for the recycling industry and integrates quality, environmental, health, and safety practices into one management system.

💻✨ Supporting workforce readiness in Ascension Parish through access to technology!

With support from a Capital Area United Way grant, CACRC partnered with Ascension Parish Library to provide refurbished laptops and hotspots to community members working toward employment opportunities and career growth.

In today’s digital world, reliable access to technology is essential for job searching, resume building, online training, and staying connected. We’re proud to help place these tools into the hands of individuals working toward their goals and building brighter futures.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support our mission through donations, partnerships, and community involvement. Every device recycled with purpose helps create meaningful impact across our communities. 💚♻️
