Our Mission
The mission of the Branch of Tribal Climate Resilience is to support climate preparedness and resilience for all Federally-recognized Tribal Nations and Alaska Native villages through technical and financial assistance, access to scientific resources and educational opportunities.
TCR will begin accepting applications for the FY 2024 Annual Awards Program starting July 17, 2024. This year, over $120 million will be made available in grants to federally recognized Tribes and Tribal organizations to fund climate resilience project planning and implementation.
Additional instructions, informational webinars, and virtual office hours for technical assistance will be announced on the Annual Awards Program web page.
All 2024 award applications must be submitted online by October 18, 2024.
Who We Serve
The Branch of Tribal Climate Resilience (TCR) partners with Tribal Nations and Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) agencies to incorporate climate considerations into their programs and policies by providing funding, training, technical assistance and organizational support.
Tribes can leverage TCR programs to further support their existing operations, program planning, project design, as well as Indigenous and Traditional Knowledges into their management and protection of Trust resources and Tribal economies.
