About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service awarded Hispanic Access Foundation a $25,000,000 Cooperative Agreement under the Inflation Reduction Act Urban & Community Forestry Program (CFDA 10.727). The grant, with a performance period from December 13, 2023 to November 14, 2028, will fund projects that plan, establish, manage, and protect trees, forests, green spaces, and related natural resources in urban and community settings. Key activities include tree planting, ecosystem restoration, conservation planning, workforce development, and educational outreach to increase tree canopy cover in disadvantaged urban, rural, and indigenous communities. Hispanic Access Foundation, a minority-owned, woman-owned, non-profit organization, will partner with the Forest Service to recruit and support diverse cohorts of youth, young adults, and veterans for hands-on experience and training in natural resource careers and conservation efforts, with the goal of increasing workforce diversity and community engagement around public lands and environmental stewardship.
