About this opportunity

The LI Program is to support federally- recognized tribes located in California that serve populations in areas at moderate to high risk from natural hazard. Tribal governments can work independently, with other tribal governments, or with local CBOs to provide disaster training and resources to vulnerable and diverse populations. This work is intended to increase their communities’ disaster preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation capabilities. Social vulnerability refers to the potential negative effects on communities caused by external stresses on human health. Such stresses include natural or human-caused disasters, or disease outbreaks. Reducing social vulnerability can decrease both human suffering and economic loss. Socially vulnerable populations include those who have special needs, such as, but not limited to, people without vehicles, people with disabilities, older adults, and people with limited English proficiency. The Listos California Grant Program is comprised of multiple entities, the LI Program being a critical one. The other entities will all compete for other grant funding.
