Climate change impacts different tribes in different ways, depending on their unique geography, culture and economy.
Commerce has consulted with tribes in Washington to co-design a strategy for the distribution of $50 million of Climate Commitment Act (CCA) dollars that the Washington Legislature appropriated for tribal climate resilience in the 2023-2025 biennium.
Tribes have the flexibility to determine the best use of this funding to address their climate resiliency needs.

Tribal Climate Resilience Program Grants are supported with funding from Washington’s Climate Commitment Act. The CCA supports Washington’s climate action efforts by putting cap-and-invest dollars to work reducing climate pollution, creating jobs, and improving public health.
