National partnerships
Alliance for Community Trees (ACT) ACT's mission is to support grassroots, citizen-based nonprofit organizations dedicated to urban and community tree planting, care, conservation and education. ACT is both the nucleus and catalyst for the fast-growing field of citizen-forestry. ACT's member organizations address concern in the environment where 80% of Americans live and work - our 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 those trees. The Home Depot Foundation is providing support for the National NeighborWoods Program™ which builds upon the work of ACT member organizations as they seek to restore and improve tree canopy in their communities. The National NeighborWoods Program's goals are to increase volunteerism to benefit urban forests, disseminate information on best practices in the field, replicate the NeighborWoods concept in additional communities, and build a national collaborative network of community tree-planting organizers.
