The Resilient Communities program will award approximately $2 million in
grants to projects in 2017 to improve natural resources and enhance local
capacity to help communities prepare for expected impacts associated with
water quantity and quality issues, forest conservation challenges, and
sea-level rise.
Each grant will range from $100,000 to $500,000 depending on category and
will be awarded to eligible entities working to help communities become
more resilient.
Projects must focus on one or both of the following activities:
• Advance innovative and scalable resilience solutions benefiting
multi-family affordable housing through green infrastructure such as tree
canopies/pocket parks/community green spaces, and/or stormwater retention
projects.
• Support organizations that build capacity to help cities plan for
enhanced resilience through green infrastructure or other improvements.
