Grant Number
03-DG-11046000-041

This project was to translate 2,000 resources into 12 languages and to expand minority or underserved U and CF outreach and education.

 

This grant would enable TreeLink to: First, translate some 2,000 resources into 12 languages to expand minority or underserved U&CF outreach and education. Second, TreeLink posted "quick surveys," simple, one question bimonthly surveys to build a baseline of knowledge to assess issues of high impact, and to help assess the value of U&CF to multicultural and underserved populations. Third, this grant allowed TreeLink to research minority and underserved organizations, correspond with these organizations, build dialogue, share resources and promote cross-cultural diversity and programs in order to expand knowledge and participation in Urban and Community Forestry nationwide and abroad.
