The Power of Partnering with Non-Profits Monday, October 3, 2022 | 1 pm to 2 pm (1 CEU)

Presenter: Katie Kosanke Location: The Shore Room

The City of Spokane has been fortunate to partner with like-minded non-profit or - ganizations who applied for, and received WA DNR Community Forestry Grants, which directly benefited the city’s Urban Forestry program. For those who work for municipalities, we understand you are always striving to do more, with less. This session will provide an overview of Spokane’s partnerships which have been in - credibly successful. The programs have resulted in an increase of understanding of tree benefits within the community, added many new trees, and even decreased city staff workload. This session will also provide suggestions of the many different types of non-profit organizations you should consider partnering with next.

Katie Kosanke is the Urban Forester for the City of Spokane Washington, since November 2018 and manages all aspects of the City’s Urban Forestry program. Previously, Katie was the Ur - ban Forester for the City of Coeur d’Alene Idaho where she was a part of the program for 11 years. She is an ISA Certified Arborist, Municipal Specialist and holds the Tree Risk Assessment Qualifi - cation.
