Myself, Alexander Grieve, Michael (Mike) Martini, and Urban and Community Forestry Society are excited to launch LGBTree during pride month! If you're an LBGTQ+ urban and community forestry professional, please join or group. If you’re any ally, please share with your networks. LGBTree - A New UCFS Affinity Group The new UCFS LGBTree affinity group is open to urban and community forestry professionals who identify as LGBTQ+. LGBTree is dedicated to promoting inclusivity and diversity within urban and community forestry. The group provides support to all LGBTQ+ identifying urban and community forestry professionals and a safe space to gather together to celebrate the community's achievements, share stories, and enjoy the company of fellow members. Look for socials and a meeting at the UCFS Conference.

Fantastic opportunity to support, empower, and expand #diversity in #urbanforestry.
