Join our Alliance

The Alliance for Community Trees was founded as a public interest nonprofit organization servicing the needs of grassroots, local nonprofit urban and community forestry groups. ACT is the catalyst for the fast-growing field of citizen-forestry. ACT’s concern is the environment where 80% of Americans live and work: out cities, towns, and villages. Trees anchor a healthy urban ecology, and ACT is the problem-solving and best-practice center for engaging community volunteers to plant and protect trees. Almost 15 years later, the founding purpose remains intact and carries many benefits.

"As always, ACT is right on the ball."
