Limited funding sources exist worldwide to help communities build capacity to respond to public health and on-the-ground impacts of climate change. Many existing climate resilience-focused funding sources lack flexibility, focus support on infrastructure and capital projects, and often do not allow for the allocation of funds to early phases of planning. Developing and implementing solutions will require joint action and collaboration across jurisdictions, agencies, and partners. Highlighting a need to increase funding for coastal resilience inclusive, science-based planning and piloting. There is an opportunity to pilot and implement public- private partnerships and blended funding mechanisms to support coastal resilience planning, projects at all scales, from local to national. 665173 30500 Resilient Protected Areas and Parks. To address the global climate crisis, nations are committing to protect, restore, and reduce impacts on natural areas. In the United States, an executive order was recently signed promising to protect 30 percent of U.S. land and 30 percent of oceans by 2030. In California, a similar executive order was signed. This 30 by 30 commitment galvanized governments to act quickly to develop nature-based solutions to address climate change that can sequester carbon, reduce pollution, restore wildlife habitat, and benefit communities. There is an opportunity to work on public-private partnership to strengthen management, diversity, equity, and inclusion in coastal protected areas and parks. Simultaneously, this will help states and nations reach 30 by 30 targets, prepare protected areas and parks for climate change, and ensure increased access by priority communities. 218425 19364 Protecting and Restoring Coastal Ecosystems. Across the globe collaborative policy forums are working to change the way we view and address the role of coastal ecosystems for climate change. As the United States renews it commitment to the Paris Agreement and other countries pledge to curb climate change, a significant opportunity remains for better inclusion of coastal ecosystems as a natural climate solution and simultaneously protecting biodiversity, enhancing water quality and community resilience. There is opportunity to catalyze implementation of enabling conditions and on-the-ground blue carbon efforts that will protect and restore coastal ecosystems, delivering blue carbon benefits while helping communities, ecosystems, and economies be more resilient today. 74413 1793116 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false true false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false true 25 0 true 17 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 6 5 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X X Hewad RafiqiMight Nonprofits 5102105269 2625 Alcatraz Ave 609 Berkeley CA 94705 Dr Tegan Hoffmann Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X X 187633 0 8339 R Peter Mallari President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Dr Barbara Endemao Walker Vice President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Barbara Walker Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Kathryn Randlett Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Dr Jennifer Sokolove Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 187633 8339 1 false true false AECOM 1178 Paysphere Cir Chicago IL 60674 Environmental consulting 226016 Seafood & Gender Equality 2805 SE Oak St Portland OR 97214 Gender & industry conslt 177497 2 757571 1876655 2634226 Program service revenue 900099 3500 3500 3500 191 191 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Other 900099 1509 1509 1509 2639426 3500 1700 X 50044 50044 0 0 0 195971 162656 27436 5879 0 675541 561610 96312 17619 29189 24266 4162 761 28961 24068 4113 780 67119 55779 9532 1808 0 945 945 25895 25895 0 0 0 795297 766374 23453 5470 12017 11219 205 593 26661 20053 5861 747 18880 17577 1061 242 0 87141 64888 21188 1065 25096 15950 9146 0 19654 18176 1478 0 0 0 5009 456 4541 12 0 2063420 1793116 235328 34976 8253 323665 454257 599513 0 196578 452144 0 0 0 0 40128 1450 740 247 493 493 0 0 0 0 0 699709 1377265 114663 201213 15000 114663 216213 X 72654 110570 512392 1050482 585046 1161052 699709 1377265 576006 X false false false X 216773 246075 822737 1553070 2634226 5472881 0 0 216773 246075 822737 1553070 2634226 5472881 1677042 3795839 72 191 263 0 1509 1509 5474653 56000 0.69330 0.78020 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 740 247 493 493 true Cal Marine Sanctuary Fdn 99 Pacific St Ste 455 A Monterey CA 93940 943225675 501c3 10000 0 Marine Protected Area Support Los Cerritos Wetlands Fund 100 N Old San Gabriel Cny Rd Azusa CA 91702 841876735 City & county 19544 0 Tribal Restoration Planning Oceans Unmanned 263 San Rafael Santa Barbara CA 93109 812755786 501c3 7500 0 Marine Protected Area Support Save Our Shores 345 Lake Ave Ste A Santa Cruz CA 95062 942745941 501c3 9350 0 Marine Protected Area Support 4 0 Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used Coastal Quests grants monitoring is pretty extensive. First off, Coastal Quest collaborates with all donor partners and with the MPA Small Grants program we set up a Grant Review Committee with a rigorous scoring process to review proposals and select grantees. With all of our donor partners we ensure they are made aware of who is receiving funding, how they will be paid, what deliverables will be met, and how we are monitoring their progress. Once a list of grantees is established, we monitor them by tracking every aspect of the grantees work. The Coastal Quest project team is responsible for overseeing the grantee progress and once the conditions are met to issue payment (such as a deliverable or timeline), the project managers notify the Coastal Quest Finance team that the grantee has met the conditions for payment and to issue payment. For the MPA Small Grants Program we receive two interim programmatic and finance reports for payment and a final report to receive the final payment. The Coastal Quest Finance team will proceed with issuing payment, based on the grantee agreement, and submit the payment to the Coastal Quest Executive Director for final approval. Final approval of any payments to grantees will be based on 3 factors: payment is in line with grantee agreement, reported expenses (projected or incurred) are appropriate and reasonable, and that grantee has provided sufficient backup documentation on each expense. Once a payment is made to a grantee, Coastal Quest will continue to monitor grantees progress and expenses to ensure they are following all applicable policies and procedures.

Coastal water quality agencies struggle to meet clean water standards, impacting the health of coastal waters and wellbeing of residents and visitors alike. National, state, and local water quality agencies have limited ability to enforce current rules and laws and capacity to make changes needed to update outdated standards on emerging issues and take into account climate change. There are opportunities to strengthen capacity and enhance water quality management actions for contaminants of emerging concern, nutrient pollution, sea level rise, and wastewater/stormwater treatment all to improve coastal water quality for people and nature. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b After staff and CPA prepare DRAFT we share with the Treasurer for review and after addressing any issues we share revised FINAL DRAFT with Board for review and vote for final approval and submission.
