This 22 month-long project provides support to Barr Foundation grantees in the area of climate resilience through thought-partnership coaching, tailored technical assistance, and peer learning opportunities.
The Partnership for Resilient Communities – Massachusetts (PRC-Mass) project focuses on providing technical assistance to Barr Foundation Climate Program grantees. Our technical assistance works with Barr Foundation frontline communities and climate organization grantees to build local community capacity to implement climate justice projects in Massachusetts. This project will build on ISC’s Climate Leaders of Color program and provide PRC-Mass partners with a national network for peer-to-peer conversations.

Climate change is changing everything, and in communities of color it is further exacerbating inequities resulting from systemic and institutional racism. PRC – Massachusetts aims to resource and ensure leaders of colors and organizations within communities of color participate fully in climate resilience planning and decision making processes. This program is rooted in equity and the understanding that people closest to the impacts of climate change hold the knowledge and expertise to drive equitable and sustainable solutions.
