💡 Tips for applicants
- Start early and engage your community partners now. Multiple co-applicants and a formal governance structure are required; building alignment takes time.
- Request technical assistance by July 31, 2026 if eligible (tribal communities, tribally-owned nonprofits, or projects in disadvantaged unincorporated communities).
- Ground your proposal in prior community planning work. Show how your project development activities build on existing plans and community-identified priorities.
- Connect your activities to climate resilience outcomes. Clearly link budget items to emissions reduction, health improvements, or environmental benefits.
- Include diverse stakeholders. Demonstrate how community members, local businesses, and government agencies will collaborate in decision-making and implementation.
⚠️ Common mistakes
Applications fail to document prior community planning or clear community priorities they're building from. Proposals lack meaningful community engagement or show weak collaborative governance structures without genuine multi-stakeholder participation. Projects don't clearly articulate climate resilience outcomes or fail to connect budget activities to emissions reduction and environmental/health benefits.
