The California Urban Forests Council (CaUFC) was founded in 1968 as the first urban forest council in the nation. We are professionals associated with municipalities and public works, urban planning and design, arboriculture and the nursery industry, and community-based and public health organizations. We support seven Regional Councils across California that act as the backbone of our organizations. Together, as a coalition, we are dedicated to the expansion and perpetuation of sustainable urban and community forests to enhance the quality of life for all Californians.
