THE RESILIENT ADAPTATION PROGRAM FOCUSES ON CREATING TANGIBLE, ACTION-ORIENTED PROJECTS THAT ADDRESS COMMUNITY PRIORITIES IN RESPONSE TO CLIMATE CHANGE AND SEA LEVEL RISE, RANGING FROM CONTRIBUTIONS TO CITY-WIDE ADAPTATION AND RESILIENCE PLANNING TO INTERVENTIONS FOR INDIVIDUAL RESIDENTS AND FAMILIES. AN IMPORTANT FOCUS FOR CRCS WORK IN FY 22-23 HAS BEEN OUR EFFORT TO EXPAND THE CAPACITY AND LEADERSHIP OF ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS THE BAY AREA.
RESILIENT EDUCATION PROGRAM: AIMS TO INCREASE AWARENESS AND UNDERSTANDING OF CLIMATE CHANGE AND ITS IMPACTS IN FRONTLINE COMMUNITIES, PARTICULARLY AMONG YOUTH. THE PROGRAM HAS TWO MAIN COMPONENTS: THE EARTHWISE KIDS CURRICULUM AND A YOUTH CLIMATE COLLECTIVE FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM. IN FY 22-23, WE LAUNCHED THE INAUGURAL YOUTH CLIMATE COLLECTIVE (YCC).

OUR FIRST COHORT EXPLORED THE MYRIAD OF WAYS THAT ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE ORGANIZATIONS ARE TACKLING THE CLIMATE CHANGE CRISIS, IN A SERIES OF 9 WORKSHOPS.
