Who We Are
The Clark County Public Works volunteer program engages the community in meaningful volunteer experiences that enhance community assets like parks and roadways.
These activities also support the mission of Public Works "to enhance Clark County's quality of life by providing transportation, environmental, and parks facilities and services." Volunteers are essential to enhancing the beauty, safety, accessibility and quality of our parks, public lands, transportation corridors and trails.
What We Do
Help keep Clark County beautiful by adopting a road! Adopters work with us to find a road segment that is safe for volunteer litter crews.
Adopters complete an orientation and brief training, then gather friends, neighbors, family, and coworkers to complete three litter cleanups along their adopted road segment each year. We provide supplies and dispose of the litter; you bring the helping hands!
Roadside litter can reduce property values, increase the spread of disease, injure wildlife, and increase the risk of collisions on the roadway. In the U.S. there are over 6,000 pieces of litter for every mile of road.
