Announcing SMA Municipal Liaisons

SMA is creating a state by state member network!

SMA Municipal Liaisons will provide information to SMA about current activities, interests, people, and other areas of interest in their states by submitting information to SMA for our website on a quarterly basis. Municipal liaisons will help SMA by suggesting topics and speakers for our educational programs. In addition, they will provide information about SMA to their state U&CF community by displaying the SMA booth at conferences and including SMA information in state-wide newsletters. Municipal liaisons will encourage member discussion in topics of localized interest by moderating their individual Municipal Liaison forum pages on the SMA website.

Ways you can participate:

Join in members only discussions on your state's forum. This is an exclusive SMA Members Only opportunity for you to engage with urban forestry professionals in your area. Ask questions, offer expertise, seek advice, and share news.

Would you like to participate as a Municipal Liaison for SMA? Send us an email!
