Growing Vibrant LA Communities

Greetings!

Thank you for registering for our very first Growing Vibrant LA Communities: Inventory into Action webinar! We hope you learned about the various efforts underway to improve LA's urban forest and walked away feeling empowered to take action in your community. There are many ways for you to get involved — Below you'll find some action items to help you grow your vibrant community.

If you were unable to attend the webinar, or simply want to view the presentations again, check out the English and Spanish presentation recordings, and review the English and Spanish presentation slides.

"Growing Vibrant LA Communities" will be a quarterly series as we pave the way for an inclusive urban forest management plan for our city. Our next webinar, "Urban Heat — From Hazard to Hope," will be on December 8th (English) and 11th (Spanish).

Save the date, and invite your friends — Hope to see you there! Your voice.Your city. Your urban forest.
