Organization Description: Nature for All has been working to protect the public lands and green, open spaces around Los Angeles and connect Angelenos to nature since 2008, when we formed as the San Gabriel Mountains Forever coalition. Since then, we have expanded our mission to conserve resources and be more climate-resilient; create more natural spaces such as parks and bike paths in our historically under-served neighborhoods; and connect people and public lands through more trails and other outdoor recreational opportunities, to improve public health.
