Preparing communities to withstand climate-related risks so that they can thrive in place for generations to come.

Our climate resilience practice group partners to reduce heat-trapping emissions that drive climate change and to remedy the harmful effects of environmental racism. We build networks to support community-driven investments in climate adaptation and mitigation that will benefit frontline communities across the country.

We partner with community-based organizations, the public sector, and philanthropic partners to create policies and programs that address our largest climate risks and promote environmental justice and public health. Our coalition-building, research and policy development, and program implementation helps ensure quality jobs, deploy nature-based solutions, and draw down critical funding for infrastructure investments. We help facilitate the creation of physical and social infrastructure that enhances quality of life for all communities.
