ABOUT US
Our Vision
To create a more equitable and climate-resilient community through neighborhood planning that supports climate change adaptation, the health development of children; the ability of older adults to age in place; and an overall sense of connectedness that benefits all residents. It means having access to public resources like recreational and wellness facilities, zero-emission public transportation, affordable housing, urban forest, and solar programs that help make homes more energy efficient: parks and open spaces, infrastructure like sidewalks and bicycle traits that promote activity and mobility, and economic opportunities the increase wealth and prosperity.
TCC
The Transformative Climate Communities Program is an innovative, new investment in community-scale climate action, with potentially broad implications. Launched in 2017 by the California State Legislature, TCC funds the implementation of neighborhood-level transformative plans that include multiple, coordinated projects to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The program is also designed to provide an array of local economic, environmental, and health benefits to disadvantaged communities, while minimizing the risk of displacement. TCC empowers the communities most impacted by pollution to choose their own goals, strategies, and projects to enact transformational change — all with data-driven milestones and measurable outcomes.The California Strategic Growth Council (SGC) serves as the lead administrator of TCC.
