About this opportunity

The APGP provides funding to help fill planning needs, provides communities the resources to identify climate resilience priorities, and supports the development of climate resilient projects across the state. The key priorities of ICARP’s APGP are the following: (1) Help communities plan for and respond to multiple climate risks by supporting an all-risk approach to adaptation planning. These grants allow communities to conduct integrated planning activities. As California experiences accelerated impacts of climate change, many communities are faced with planning for and responding to cascading and compound impacts (e.g., flooding and landslides following wildfires, or riverine flood and sea level rise). (2) Support equitable outcomes and wide geographic and economic diversity in applicants. (3) Support much-needed integrated infrastructure planning to achieve community resilience. The program provides flexible funding to meet multi-sector/issue planning needs that intersect with climate risks, including but not limited to land use, transportation, housing, natural resource management, public infrastructure, and hazard mitigation issues. (4) Build community planning and capacity by supporting peer-to-peer learning, information sharing, and publishing replicable case studies in the State Adaptation Clearinghouse.
