The Texas A&M Forest Service Urban and Community Forestry Program aims to work with communities to establish sustainable initiatives that ensure the health and vitality of trees and forests, recognizing their critical importance to economic, environmental, physical, and mental community well-being.
The Workforce Development category is designed to train citizens and students in essential skills for community tree care and management. By empowering individuals with both technical skills and awareness for the value of community trees, the program aims to enhance community engagement in urban forestry efforts. Successful applicants will teach participants proper tree planting, maintenance, and management techniques through hands-on learning experiences such as workshops and projects. Collaboration with local industry professionals is encouraged to connect participants with job opportunities and enhance their readiness for careers in urban forestry. While career pathways are prioritized, the primary goal is to foster a well-informed community that actively contributes to the health and sustainability of urban forests.
