Mental Health & Second Chances in Arboriculture

At CAA, we prioritize mental well-being and believe in second chances. Arboriculture is more than a career—it’s a path to stability, purpose, and growth, especially for those in recovery or reentering society.

The Reality of Mental Health in Our Industry

  • 1 in 5 adults in the U.S. experiences a mental illness each year.
  • Suicide is the second leading cause of death among 15-29-year-olds worldwide.
  • High-risk professions, including arboriculture, face unique mental health challenges.
