SCC Grant Availability Webinar Nov 9
The State of California has made an unprecedented investment in the resilience and accessibility of the coast. As a result, the Coastal Conservancy has significant funding available to non-profit organizations, public agencies, and federally-recognized tribes for projects that benefit public access, natural resources, working lands, and climate resiliency at the coast, coastal watersheds, and the San Francisco Bay.
A webinar was held on November 9 on Conservancy funding and how to apply for our grants. A recording of the webinar can be found on our Grants page here.
We anticipate that the majority of our funding will be allocated through our ongoing pre-proposal solicitation. To learn more about this process, please visit the Grants page of our website.
The Conservancy also holds periodic grant rounds related to specific programs or fund sources. Information on those grant rounds and their deadlines are posted on this page when they are open. You can also sign up to be notified of scheduled grant rounds by registering for our mailing list at this link.
The Conservancy will fund most stages of a project including pre-project feasibility studies, property acquisition, project planning including community involvement, design, environmental review, permitting, construction, and project-related monitoring. We do not fund operation and maintenance activities.
We look forward to working with many partner organizations to make a difference for the health and accessibility of the coast.
