Anti-Graffiti Truck
Housed at the Correctional Alternative Center in Lawrence, the anti-graffiti truck is part of that facility’s community service program.Two offenders, supervised by a correctional officer, will take the truck out and visit any community looking to remove graffiti from public or private buildings. Requests to remove the graffiti are usually made by business owners, mayors, town managers, city councils, boards of selectman, or police chiefs.
In the last two years, offenders have removed graffiti from buildings and bridges in Georgetown, Groveland, Haverhill, Ipswich, Lawrence, Lynn, Lynnfield, Marblehead, Methuen, Nahant, Newburyport, Peabody, Salem and Swampscott.
