Hamilton County ReSource

ReSource is excited to join our fellow Hamilton County departments at the new Central Campus — a space designed to strengthen collaboration, improve access to services, and better serve our community. By sharing this campus with Hamilton County Public Health, Environmental Services, Job and Family Services, Veterans Service Commission, Developmental Disabilities Services, the Office of Addiction Response, and the Regional Crime Information Center, we have an even greater opportunity to work together across departments to support residents, communities, businesses, and schools in meaningful ways. This move also reflects a commitment to a more sustainable future through smarter operations, shared resources, and a modern campus built for long-term community impact. We’re proud to be part of this next chapter for Hamilton County.

As the school year wraps up, we’re celebrating schools making sustainability part of everyday learning. This year, Cincinnati Country Day School became one of the first schools to earn the 513 Green certification. In this Q&A, they share how sustainability efforts are impacting their school community, the project they’re most proud of, and advice for schools considering the 513 Green journey. From composting and reusable materials to pollinator gardens and student-led green spaces, Cincinnati County Day shows that every step toward sustainability matters. No matter where your school is starting, Hamilton County ReSource is here to partner with schools to build a more sustainable future.
