SACRAMENTO ~ In response to the record-breaking heatwave last summer and the increasing global temperatures, Governor Gavin Newsom has announced nearly $200 million in funding for the construction of Community Resilience Centers. The California Strategic Growth Council (SGC) is managing the program with $98.6 million available for the first round of funding.
Governor Newsom stated, "California is taking swift action to combat the climate crisis and protect Californians from extreme heat and other climate-driven extremes. These resilience centers are yet another tool we're using to save lives and adapt to our new climate reality."
The Community Resilience Centers program is part of a larger $270 million initiative from the state to support planning and construction of neighborhood 'community resilience centers' that provide shelter during extreme weather events. The program is funded through Governor Newsom's $48 billion California Climate Commitment. Once constructed, these centers will distribute resources and provide shelter during climate events as well as support social connectedness and community climate solutions through year-round programming.
