Urban Forest Health Needs Assessment Survey: Results and Recommendations

Results and recommendations based on the Urban Forest Health Needs Assessment Survey.

The Urban Forest Health Needs Assessment Survey was designed to query urban forestry professionals and learn about their attitudes toward the general issue of urban forest health, identify specific training and information needs in the areas of urban tree health management, and discover preferences in educational outreach methods.  The survey was distributed to urban forestry professionals throughout the 20 northeast and midwest States and the District of Columbia, which are served by the Northeastern Area State and Private Forestry, a unit of the USDA Forest Service.
