The Adopt-A-Road litter prevention initiative empowers volunteer groups, families, churches, service organizations, schools and businesses to show their pride in Douglasville by keeping their neighborhood litter-free street by street. It allows citizens to remove unsightly trash along the City of Douglasville right-of-ways while promoting a sense of civic responsibility and pride and contributing to overall community beautification.
The litter prevention efforts of the Adopt-A-Road Program can have an impact and benefit the community by helping:

• Improve property values
• Reduce litter-removal costs
• Foster pride (people litter less in clean neighborhoods)
• Convey monetary costs of littering through public awareness
• Encourage greater civic involvement
