Our Mission
At Canopy Community Alliance, we unite science, art, and grassroots organizing to champion the preservation of urban forests. Our mission is to cultivate a thriving ecosystem where community engagement, scientific research, and artistic expression converge to safeguard the vitality of our urban green spaces. Through collaborative initiatives, education, and advocacy, we empower individuals and communities to become stewards of their local environments, ensuring that the canopy of our cities remains vibrant, resilient, and accessible for generations to come.
