Our Vision
Led by a coalition of local organizations, Richmond Rising is implementing projects envisioned by the community.
Funded by a $35 million grant to fight climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and to increase community resilience, the projects will bring environmental, health, and economic benefits to the Iron Triangle, Santa Fe, and Coronado neighborhoods.
Approach
Using the following strategies, Richmond Rising will protect and empower the city and its residents:
- Transit access and mobility
- Solar installation, energy efficiency, appliance electrification
- Water efficiency
- Urban greening and green infrastructure
- Health and well-being through parks and healthy food
This effort is funded by a $35 million grant from the California Strategic Growth Council’s Transformative Climate Communities Program. Find out how you can participate!
