Share Your Voice: Help Shape the Future of the Tribal Network
Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2026 Tribal Forestry Needs Assessment. Your insights, experiences, and perspectives are already helping to strengthen our understanding of the opportunities, priorities, and needs across Tribal communities. The final report can be downloaded here: 2026 Tribal Forestry Needs Assessment
As we continue to shape the Arbor Day Foundation Tribal Network Program, we are inviting Tribal environmental professionals/practitioners, stewards of Tribal lands, and Tribal community members to take part in a follow-up conversation. These one-on-one discussions provide an opportunity to share more about the strengths within your community, areas where additional support may be helpful, and what meaningful, respectful partnership looks like from your perspective.
The conversations will be held virtually and last approximately 45 minutes. We hope to complete interviews by mid-September and welcome participation at a time that works best for you.
