TransFormCA

TransFormCA is a long-standing partner and grantee of the Hewlett Foundation. The organization works to promote walkable communities with excellent transportation choices to connect people of all incomes to opportunity, keep California affordable and help solve climate change. This grant will support the implementation of an innovative incentive program for improving mobility in the San Francisco Bay Area’s main highways, with the support of San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara counties.

TransFormCA works to create world-class public transportation and walkable communities. This grant would support ClimatePlan, a program that convenes and coordinates efforts to reduce carbon emissions from transportation and land-use planning in California through the implementation of Sustainable Community Strategies in five metropolitan regions: the San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento, San Joaquin Valley, Los Angeles, and San Diego. The focus for this coming year is preparing the next set of long-term greenhouse gas reduction targets, taking into account equity issues and underserved communities in the state.
