Join Our
Adoption Network…
Since 1990, PA CleanWays
has offered an adoption program as a way for caring individuals
and groups to "adopt" local areas they care about
and help to keep them clean. Our adoption program compliments
PennDOT's Adopt-A-Highway program and is an option for most
types of local areas, such as municipal roads, communities,
parks, neighborhood blocks, greenways,
waterways, and trails. Adopting an area is a proven and
effective way to address persistent dumping and littering
and helps keep these areas trash-free. All it takes is a
concerned person or group of volunteers and a commitment
to be part of the solution in keeping Pennsylvania clean.
PA CleanWays provides up to two adoption signs per adoption.
Adoption signs help to recognize the volunteer effort behind
an adoption and build awareness among visitors and residents
that someone cares enough about removing trash and litter
to "adopt" an area. To initiate a PA CleanWays
adoption, click on the information below.
