What Is This Program?

There are nearly 500 million acres of non-Federal forest land in the United States, comprising about 20 percent of the Nation, and two-thirds of the Nation's forests. Management practices on these lands impact the social, economic, and natural environment for everyone. Cooperative Forestry works with States, private landowners, and other partners to promote healthy forests and livable communities throughout the United States. Programs and partnerships help private landowners and rural communities manage their forests, strengthen local economies, and maintain a high quality of life.
