DescCALIFORNIA RELEAF NETWORKThe California ReLeaf Network is a statewide forum for exchange, education, and mutual support for community-based organizations. The members have common goals of planting and protecting trees, fostering an ethic of environmental stewardship, and promoting volunteer involvement.The ReLeaf Network enables individual groups to use their collective power to improve the urban and community forest in their own towns. Through membership in the Network, groups build their organizational and technical skills, share their enthusiasm, experiences and ideas, address issues of common concern, and work together to advance urban forestry throughout the state. 2013 accomplishments of this program include:- In 2013, the Network had 88 members that varied from small groups of dedicated volunteers to mature nonprofit organizations with paid staff. Network members represent diverse demographics and broad geographic spread throughout California. - Our Network Coordinator sent regular Network Updates to Network members throughout the year. These emails reached 115 recipients and covered a variety of topics, including information about funding opportunities, upcoming conferences and workshops, research reports, job announcements and more. - Two regional meetings were held for network members in February 2014. Both were entitled Trees in All Policies with one held in El Sobrante and the other in Los Angeles.- This year marks California ReLeafs 25th anniversary. To commemorate this milestone, staff and volunteers completed several actions as follows:1. Created a special 25th Anniversary logo,2. Interviewed over 40 founding members and partners about their experiences in urban forestry and with California ReLeaf,3. Held a 25th anniversary reception at the June conference4. Started planning a 25th anniversary reunion for October, and 5. Formed two California International Marathon ReLeaf relay teams - In 2013, ReLeaf Network members:1. Planted and cared for 118,600 trees2. Engaged over 44,000 volunteersDesc

This grant funded the research, writing, and publication of Eureka! A Transformative Approach to Sustaining Californias Urban Forests, which includes an in-depth study of funding sources for Californias urban forest program as well as how the State could implement a statewide no net loss canopy campaign2013 CAL FIRE Urban Forests/Urban Greening Education Grant Staff successfully advocated to CAL FIRE to redirect $75,000 in grant funds for a Green Cities Coalition awarded to California ReLeaf in 2013. As California ReLeaf has completed much of the groundwork for this effort through its advocacy partnerships, CAL FIRE concurred that using these funds for this purpose was duplicative, and instead authorized the organization to move forward on implementing the first several steps of a No Net-Loss Tree Canopy Campaign as detailed in the organization's Eureka! Report completed earlier this year. The first step in this process was creating a Task Force, which was partially assembled in May and had its first meeting in June.2013 CAL FIRE Tree Planting Grant - California ReLeaf initiated work on the 2013 CAL FIRE tree planting grants for select Network groups in disadvantaged areas. ReLeafs plan is to rollout the pass-through grants for fall/winter projects. A preliminary list of target areas was selected based on designation as either 1) disadvantaged as defined by CalEnviroScreen 2) a disadvantaged community as defined by CAL FIRE or; 3) High Priority Landscape Area for tree planting as identified by CAL FIRE. The selected groups will be notified in July 2014, once the Grant Guidelines have been finalizedDesc

Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services DescriptionOTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: LEGISLATIVE OUTREACH California ReLeaf monitors state and federal legislation for opportunities to influence public debate and policy related to urban forestry. Through our website, newsletter, emails and action alerts, we ensure that our Network members are aware of what is happening at the state and federal level, with information for how local groups can make their voices heard. California ReLeaf staff continued communication with multiple environmental partners on policy priorities during the reporting period with specific focus on highlighting urban forestry in 2014 cap and trade discussions and the potential 2014 water bond/park bond. The June 2014 news regarding the Governors approved budget reflected months of hard work on the part of California ReLeaf staff, Network members, and other ReLeaf partners. Translating these funding opportunities to the Network groups will be the number on priority over the next months.ReLeaf met with partners and members of the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to discuss the draft 2013 Scoping Plan that was released in October and highlights urban forestry as a GHG reduction mechanism in the Natural Resources Sector. The California Energy Commission released and approved its Final draft for Proposition 39 implementation. The CEC has confirmed with CA ReLeaf that tree planting is still eligible and nonprofits will be eligible partners with schools. At a national level, staff is the Alliance for Community Trees Policy committee Chair, and has worked to engage groups in strategic ways to increase USFS urban and committee forest funding in the Presidents budget. Strategic PartnershipsCalifornia ReLeaf staff participated in the following strategic partnerships:- California Urban Forestry Advisory Committee representative- WC-ISA conference, exhibitor- Transform, invited presenter on Urban Forestry and sustainable community strategies- League of California Cities, invited presenter on Urban Forestry and community funding- UCLA Luskin Center Task Force participant, working to inform the State Administration on how to best use cap and trade funds for disadvantaged communities- Transportation, Housing, and Environment Network, invited presenter on cap and trade funding for sustainable communities- Inauguration of House Speaker Toni Akins, invited guest- Finally, ReLeaf staff worked with California Urban Forest Council to effectively work together on public policy matters, specifically on the water bond.(No public funds were used to pay for any advocacy activities.)
