Because Squirrels Need Housing too!

If you’ve ever walked around the Capitol Park Neighborhood then you’ve likely met our friendly neighborhood squirrels. At CADA, we strive to ensure that Capitol Park Neighborhood is a neighborhood for all, including our friends the squirrels, and that it is environmentally, socially and fiscally sustainable. In honor of Earth Day (April 22, 2011) and Arbor Day (April 29, 2011), CADA encourages everyone to plant a tree or support a tree-planting organization

Here’s a list of organizations that love to plant trees:

With your help, we can do it.
