Youth in Action Bulletin, July 1999, No. 9: Community Cleanup

摘要

Every community has areas--public parks, schoolyards, sidewalks--that are neglected, vandalized, or just plain run down. Young people can help clean up those places by getting involved in a community cleanup project. As explained in this bulletin, a community cleanup is a project in which volunteers of all ages work together to spruce up a chosen site. The bulletin addresses the following topics: 'What Is a Community Cleanup.'; 'What Does a Community Cleanup Do To Prevent Crime.'; 'What Does It Take To Start a Community Cleanup.'; 'What Does It Take To Keep a Community Cleanup Going.'; 'What Are Some of the Challenges of a Community Cleanup.'; 'What Are Some of the Rewards of a Community Cleanup.'; and 'How Can the Cleanup Be Evaluated.' The bulletin lists several organizations that can provide further information.
