Tree Care Captains are advanced, independent volunteers trained by NYC Parks to care for street trees and organize their communities to help give the urban forest a little ‘TreeLC’. This remote training will teach you to become a ‘Care Captain’ with the Super Stewards network, and empower you to help protect and care for street trees. Learn arboricultural principles and how they can be applied to caring for NYC’s urban forest, while activating your community for environmental health and resilience. Tree Care Captains are able to schedule tree stewardship events independently of our office and receive NYC Parks support with mulch and tools. This is a great first step if you would like to work with our office to start a tree stewardship group in your neighborhood.  Register to become a Tree Care Captain: bit.ly/d33treecarecaptain
