Who we are

Treekeepers of Washington County advocates and works for the right to a safe, healthy, green environment for every person in the community.

​

Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is central to our mission. We realize that not everyone has equal access to trees and parks. Systemic barriers have historically disenfranchised communities with neighborhoods that are underinvested. We are committed to encouraging all our neighbors to participate in identifying the needs of their communities and the policies and programs they want. 

​

We understand how important it is to include everyone in the conversation in planning for a sustainable natural environment, and we welcome and celebrate multiple approaches and points of view. We are dedicated to building a team without regard to race, religion, color, age, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other protected category under federal, state, and local law.

​

We would like to acknowledge that we are on the traditional land of the first people of Washington County, Oregon, the Atfalati Kalapuyans, also called the Tualatin people. We share their values of protecting their lands for future generations and invite their participation in this work.
