DescProgram Grant ManagementIn fiscal year 2021, California ReLeaf again received generous grant funding for pass-through California Arbor Week grants from Edison International. The program continued Edisons goals of developing new community-based organizations interested in planting trees in their neighborhoods to help offset the impact of extreme heat events. An Arbor Week grantee webinar was held in early March to share best practices about planting and caring for trees and to answer any questions or concerns about the program. ReLeaf managed 19 Arbor Week Grants totaling $60,000 in pass-through funding.In fiscal year 2021 California ReLeaf also managed three pass-through grant programs funded through the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. Two were via the California Climate Investment Program (CCIP) intended to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and one was through the Prop 68 Program focused on planting trees to offset the impacts of climate change, such as flooding, wildfires, and extreme heat. Urban Forest California Climate Investment GrantsStarted in 2015, the California Climate Investment Program grants (CCIP and formerly known as Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund grants) from CAL FIRE have a strong emphasis on planting in Low Income and Disadvantaged Communities as identified by CAL EPA. All of the California ReLeafs CCIP grants are intended to provide funding to smaller nonprofits and community groups and to encourage new organizations to make tangible improvements to their neighborhoods with trees and building stronger, more cohesive communities. At the end of FY 2021, California ReLeaf closed out our Forest Improvement Grant Cycle, which included grants to 17 organizations, with 2766 trees planted that will remove 6328 tons of carbon from the atmosphere over 40 years and much incredible work engaging and building community. Note: any nonprofit or community group can apply for California ReLeaf grants. The organization does not have to be a member of the ReLeaf Network.List of California Climate Investment Program Grant Programs & Grantees:2018 Social Equity Grant Program: Forest Improvement1.

ReLeaf awarded $60,000 in pass-through grants to 19 community-based organizations for projects to celebrate California Arbor Week 2021 with tree plantings, tree education and care across the state. Due to Covid, a Zoom webinar was held instead of in person educational workshops. The goal of the grants is to support the development of new tree planting groups in order to combat increasing urban heat island effect.

Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services DescriptionOTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Legislative Monitoring and OutreachCalifornia ReLeaf monitors State and Federal legislation for opportunities to educate and participate in public debate and policy related to urban forestry. Of particular interest is how urban forestry is being increasingly integrated into other policy and funding arenas, such as affordable housing, additional mitigation measures, and potentially climate adaptation programs. Furthermore, the steadily mounting recognition of the value of urban forest co-benefits is particularly gratifying as found, for example, in connection with Californias Cap & Trade programs. Through our website, newsletter, emails and action alerts, ReLeaf ensures that Network members and other interested community members are aware of what is happening at the state and federal level and also provides information for how local groups can make their voices heard.California ReLeaf staff continued communication with multiple environmental and social justice partners on policy priorities during the reporting period with specific focus on highlighting urban forestry in the annual Cap and Trade programs and in climate resiliency discussions. Strategic PartnershipsIn order to advance California ReLeafs mission to empower grassroots efforts and build strategic partnerships that preserve, protect, and enhance Californias urban and community forests, ReLeaf staff participated in the following strategic partnerships, collaborations, and committees:- Alliance of Regional Collaboratives for Climate Adaptation (ARCCA)- California Climate Equity Coalition (CCEC)- California Urban Forestry Advisory Committee (CUFAC) - Climate Plan- Green California- Sustainable Communities 4 All (SC4A)- Sustainable Urban Forest Coalition (SUFC)
