Part I, Line 2:American Forests' mission is to create healthy and resilient forests from cities to wilderness, in order to deliver essential benefits to climate, people, water and wildlife. Founded in 1875, American Forests is the oldest national nonprofit conservation organization in the U.S., and has been a catalyst for many key national forest milestones, policies and practices, from the founding of the U.S. Forest Service and the National Forest System to public education efforts. Since 1990, we have planted more than 65 million trees in all 50 states and nearly 50 countries. These projects have restored thousands of acres of wildlife habitat, protected vital watersheds and sequestered millions of tons of carbon and greenhouse gases. The American ReLeaf program is driven by one unifying goal: to restore North America's native forest landscapes to full health and long-term resilience. The program is focused on priority threatened forest landscapes, where we are revitalizing ecosystems that are essential to people, water, wildlife and climate, from mountain ranges to watersheds. In each priority area, we employ a comprehensive approach in order to achieve lasting forest recovery. Our approach includes: building partnerships with agencies, industry and scientists to integrate climate science into forest restoration; developing conservation plans to ensure success and direct resources to the most important places; and restoring forests using tried and true as well cutting edge strategies. To help implement this strategy, American Forests provides grants to private and public partners in North America. Our organization does support international forest restoration projects from time to time, but they are generally funded by specific and time-limited sources of funding. Both domestic and international grants are disbursed to advance our forest restoration strategies in our priority locations. More information on our priority areas can be found on our website. Prospective partners are also encouraged to reach out to the American ReLeaf team to discuss partnership and grant opportunities. Grant decisions are based on many factors including strategic alignment, restoration outcomes, and funding availability. All prospective grantees are required to submit proposals with a description of proposed work, details of restoration experience, financial and budget details, and follow American ReLeaf communications guidelines.

Form And Line ReferencePart I, Line 2:FormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationThe Community ReLeaf program builds long-term capacity in cities and towns for managing urban forests. In select cities, we accomplish this through an adaptive change model that builds partnerships, develops plans guided by science, advocates for local policies, provides funding, implements planting and land restoration projects, and communicates to target audiences. The cities where we are or have worked can be found on our website. We also create free tools like Vibrant Cities Lab (vibrantcitieslab.com) and advance federal policy to support the overall national urban forestry movement and help all communities. Our Community ReLeaf innovation lab explores the role of urban forestry in addressing systemic societal issues, such as career pathways for low-income people of color through our new Tree Equity program and optimizing urban forests for climate mitigation. As part of our work in building local capacity, American Forests provides strategic grants to local organizations or agencies in the cities selected for Community ReLeaf long-term partnerships or projects. Outcomes associated with each grant vary and can include but not be limited to volunteer event coordination, land restoration, adaptable species selection, urban tree canopy analysis or inventory, urban forestry master plan development, community engagement, or equipment purchase. For larger projects, a portion of funds are provided up-front with final payment delivered upon completion of the project and submission of final report. Grant decisions are based on many factors including strategic alignment, local capacity outcomes, and funding availability. All prospective grantees are required to submit proposals with a description of proposed work, budget details and timeline. Grantees agree to follow Community ReLeaf communications, reporting and branding requirements, which include but are not limited to quality event and project implementation, before-and-after photographs, communications and outreach, and progress reports. Prospective partners in Community ReLeaf cities are encouraged to reach out to the Community ReLeaf team to discuss partnership and grant opportunities.ExplanationTxt

Form 990, Part III, Line 1, Description of Organization Mission: (continuedAmerican Forests is creating healthy and resilient forests from cities to wilderness that deliver essential benefits for climate, people, water and wildlife. American Forests has been restoring forests for more than 140 years. And, while we may be the oldest national conservation organization, our work today is more important than ever. Since 1990 alone, we have planted nearly 65 million trees in forest restoration projects in all 50 states. We have also worked in dozens of cities across America, expanding tree canopy and improving the quality of life for residents. Together, these projects recover hundreds of thousands of acres of wildlife habitat, safeguard vital watersheds, absorb millions of tons of greenhouse gases and protect some of the most stunning landscapes in America. At the same time, we are using trees and greenspace to make our communities more sustainable, beautiful and livable.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4a, Programs and Public Policy: (continued)For almost two decades, American Forests has worked with cities and researchers around the country to analyze forest cover in urban environments and to help promote the benefits that trees in cities can provide. For more than a century, American Forests has been at the forefront of forest policy, meeting with key policymakers and educating them on the issues facing our nation's forests. Throughout the course of its history, American Forests has grounded its work in the best science of the time, and with the 2011 creation of its science advisory board, American Forests has aligned itself with some of the nation's premiere scientists to continue developing its work in and around the latest science. For decades, American Forests has worked with local partners to help restore and protect forests and has served on many local and regional coalitions and community groups to promote strong local forestry practices and partnerships.
