The National Forest Foundation offers the Community Capacity and Land Stewardship (CCLS) funding program to support local efforts that work toward achieving watershed and landscape restoration objectives. Grants awarded will provide benefits to forest and grassland health, wildlife, fish and rare plant habitat, and USFS Pacific Southwest Region leadership intent on ecological restoration related to sustainable recreation1 and collaborative stewardship of National Forest System and adjoining private lands. The program is implemented with the support of the USFS Pacific Southwest Region
The CCLS program will provide grants of up to $24,000 to enable community-based organizations and collaborative groups to build their capacity to facilitate and/or implement watershed or landscape-level restoration. Ancillary goals of the program are to build capacity to help meet other objectives associated with the creation of stable, living-wage jobs that contribute to the economic sustainability of communities. Grants will be awarded for a period of one year.
