Work With Sequoia
The Climate and Clean Energy Equity Fund has used the grant from Sequoia to build the leadership, organizing, policy, communications capacity, and power of organizations working in communities of color through its Policy and Communications Accelerators, which aim to advance bold and equitable climate action at the state and federal levels.
The Equity Fund’s Policy Accelerator ensures that leaders from working-class communities and communities of color are prepared to drive policy by providing coaching, technical briefs, research, and resources tailored to their needs. The Communications Accelerator helps grantees develop capacity and strategies to communicate more effectively and at scale to win equitable climate and clean energy policies.
Equity Fund New Mexico grantee, Naeva, is working to accelerate the just transition in New Mexico, providing workforce development opportunities and healthier, sustainable communities for Native families.
