Overview
Communities First Fund, a project of the Amalgamated Foundation, seeks to transform how federal, state, and local governments invest public dollars in Black, Indigenous, People of Color and low-wealth communities. This grant will fund regional convenings — bringing together federal, state, tribal, and local leaders to support the coordination and equitable implementation of climate-related federal funding. These regional convenings will provide capacity, technical assistance, guidance, and pre-development support for community plans. (Substrategy: U.S. National Policy)
