All across the country, members of community organizations have signaled their commitment to keeping America beautiful by “adopting” stretches of roadway and pledging to keep them litter-free. Westchester County has enacted a similar program entitled, “Pride in Westchester: Adopt-A-Road”.

We encourage you to join in by pledging your organization's participation in the program. In doing so, you and your organization will be setting a good example of protecting the environment and keeping our county roads clean.
