The California Strategic Growth Council (SGC) released a Request for Information (RFI) on Monday, May 22 to inform the development of the Tribal Capacity Building Pilot Program. As part of SGC’s Community Assistance for Climate Equity suite of programs, this new capacity building pilot program will provide funding and tailored technical assistance to California Native American Tribes. The goal of the pilot program is to assist tribes in developing long-term capacity to secure funding and implement tribal-led climate solutions. SGC is seeking input from tribes and tribal-serving organizations to inform the development of this pilot program. The Request for Information includes: (1) a call for public comments on the Tribal Capacity Building Pilot Program Draft Grant Guidelines and (2) a series of questions to inform the development of a solicitation to select a technical assistance provider. The Draft Grant Guidelines outline the goals, processes, and requirements for tribes who apply to participate in the program.The series of questions included in the Request for Information are meant to inform the development of the technical assistance provider solicitation, including the solicitation’s scope of work, deliverables, and proposal requirements. The technical assistance provider will support participating tribes throughout the grant term. SGC respectfully requests tribal consultation and written public comments on the Request for Information and Draft Grant Guidelines by August 22, 2023. To request a consultation, please contact Ena Lupine, Community Assistance for Climate Equity Program Manager at ena.lupine@sgc.ca.gov.
