Program Background & Description

Adopt-A-Block activates neighbors on/near every street that crosses Monroe Avenue. Each person periodically walks down to the corner and picks up the stray bits of litter along their ONE BLOCK section of Monroe Avenue. While they’re out they can keep an eye on any larger items or overflowing city trash bins and then call them in to 311. Simple & effective!
