California to build 'Resilience Centers' at a cost of $200 million
Funding to build emergency facilities and resilience centers is now in place and available for entities wanting to develop these places of refuge.
The 10-day heatwave last summer and record temperatures in more recent years was given as the motivation to develop these centers in a May 26 release by the Governor’s office.
“California is taking swift action to combat the climate crisis and protect Californians from extreme heat and other climate-driven extremes. These resilience centers are yet another tool we’re using to save lives and adapt to our new climate reality,” Newsom said.
Funding has been divided into two categories: $89 million disbursed by the California Department of Food and Agriculture for emergency centers at fairgrounds, and $98.6 million for the first round of funding for Community Resilience Centers managed by the California Strategic Growth Council.
California’s Climate Adaptation Strategy and Extreme Heat Action Plan has allocated $48 billion dollars to support climate programs. The resilience and emergency centers are part of that strategy with a stated goal of providing shelter during climate events or emergency shelter as a result of extreme climate. Round 1 awards will be made this fall.
Community Resilience Centers grants will be available in 3 categories: Planning, Project Development and Implementation.
The Planning Grant fund is $5 million total with awards anticipated to range from $100,000 to $500,00 to be used for funding the initial stages of project development for community engagement, coordination, with the intent of creating a plan for the center.

I will have less of a presence on The Torrid Tribe Community. We have very little activity here. This is a sign to me that members have found other social media resources that they are spending more time in. I am happy to see less censorship on social media in general. I started The Torrid Tribe 4 years ago when we were in a state of censorship and lockdowns. It was a difficult time and this was a haven and sanctuary for so many.
I will be lightly posting things here to give you all content to see. This community will always be open to everyone and will resurrect to its full capacity if subscribers show they want it fully operational again with full time administration.
Thank you for being a part of this community. Sending each of you hugs.
