From all of us at the Landscape Architecture Foundation, we are thinking of you and hope you and your loved ones are safe, healthy, and adapting to the sudden changes brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.

 
As an organization, we've implemented the necessary adjustments to safeguard our employees' and community's well-being while ensuring the continuity of our programs because we will not let up on our efforts to support the discipline in designing a healthier, more equitable, and sustainable world.

LAF juries are convening virtually to select our 2020 scholarship recipients. We will soon announce the first winner of the new $25,000 LAF Research Grant in Honor of Deb Mitchell. Our CSI teams are developing case studies of nine exemplary landscape projects, and the 2019-2020 LAF Fellows for Innovation and Leadership are continuing to advance their projects as their fellowship year winds down and we prepare to welcome the incoming cohort.

To support distance learning, provide CEUs, or simply inform and inspire, LAF has free resources available with new webinars coming soon.

As thought leaders that you rely on for innovation and foresight, we will keep working to make sense of these changes and what it means for the future of landscape architecture, as well as what we can all do to help our communities and this awe-inspiring, beautiful planet that is our home.

We thank you for your continued support and your creativity, courage, and optimism during this time. We will keep advancing our shared values because we know that landscape architecture has the power to transform the world.
