The way the program works is that after your first CAT- walk, we supply you with the contacts and the information you need to report the issues within your area. You can take note of these problems when you’re out walking your pet, driving to work, or any other time you see them - and then you report the issue to the proper agency with the contacts we have supplied - allowing you to create change on your own schedule. At the next meeting, we discuss what was success- ful and what wasn’t and develop a plan on how to approach issues in the future. Collectively we can tackle larger issues and create a network of people within the community who want to create change!
