Community Tree Leadership Forum
Community Tree Leadership Forum
In partnership with the National Arbor Day Foundation and the USDA Forest Service, the Alliance for Community Trees developed an intensive three-day training program focused on the needs of nonprofits, service groups, volunteer coordinators, and community organizers engaged in urban and community forestry. The training is designed to increase the impact of nonprofit and community organizations working on urban forest issues by providing training to strengthen management and leadership skills.Community Tree Leadership Forum Core Modules:
- Nonprofit Standards of Excellence & Accountability
- Marketing & Urban Forestry
- Fundraising
- Program Models for Community Groups
- Partnerships & Collaboration
- Public Policy & Advocacy
This program is targeted towards executives, staff, and board members of community organizations engaged in urban forestry activities, and we see it as being of value to state and federal urban and community forestry coordinators and state and federal volunteer coordinators among others. If there is more than one individual from your organization interested in attending, you are all encouraged to apply.
