About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service awarded a $22,857,196 Project Grant under the Inflation Reduction Act Urban & Community Forestry Program (CFDA 10.727) to the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF), a state government entity. The grant funds a 5-year initiative titled "GROWING EQUITY IN OREGON'S URBAN AND COMMUNITY FORESTS" that aims to plan, establish, manage, and protect trees, forests, green spaces, and related natural resources in urban and community settings across Oregon. The project seeks to provide ecosystem services, social benefits, and economic advantages through urban forestry initiatives, with a focus on advancing environmental justice in underserved areas. 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.
