Organization Information
Mission Statement
We are a community-based, non-profit organization that helps heal environmental injustice through urban forestry, nature-based design-build, habitat restoration, and workforce development. We work in underinvested communities in Los Angeles County - particularly in Northeast, East and South Los Angeles - to build climate resiliency through stewardship, planting, design, and community engagement.
Description
NET is recognized throughout the state of California for its creation of innovative, low impact native plant based sustainable designs, and for forging strategic partnerships with urban communities. Founded in 1989 and incorporated in 1991, NET has planted over 100,000 trees, designed and built almost 50 parks and projects (half of them along the LA River), and trained and employed hundreds of frontline environmental workers from the communities we serve, and created natural green schoolyards for over 20 school communities.
