Sierra Climate Adaptation and Mitigation Partnership (Sierra CAMP)

The Sierra Climate Adaptation and Mitigation Partnership (Sierra CAMP) is a collaborative effort managed by Sierra Business Council. It serves as a dedicated partnership of organizations, businesses and local governments supporting vibrant communities, a resilient environment, and improved quality of life within the Sierra Nevada. Sierra CAMP activates the region on climate change, building connections with downstream stakeholders while promoting climate adaptation and mitigation strategies across the Sierra. Partnership priorities include:

1. Educate on and engage in equitable climate solutions
2. Provide climate policy analysis and education
3. Convene region-wide collaborators to maximize funding
4. Support and initiate projects
5. Build stakeholder capacity to address climate change

Members of Sierra CAMP are an engaged group of individuals and organizations who understand that their well-being depends on the health and long-term resilience of communities and the natural systems around them. Membership entails:

  • Curated monthly grants email and regular funding guidance (example linked to archived edition)
  • In-person meetings to convene regional implementers
  • Education, including detailed policy and budget breakdowns
  • Problem-solving forums
  • Peer group and regional collaboration on adaptation
  • A niche, collaborative space for planners, elected officials, and community members to align on cross-sectoral climate action and adaptation to maximize available funding
  • A storytelling platform to elevate the profile of localized climate impacts on rural areas

Sierra CAMP is one of seven climate collaboratives across the state that together form the Alliance of Regional Collaboratives for Climate Adaptation (ARCCA). Through ARCCA, adaptation practitioners connect to: exchange knowledge, engage in targeted problem-solving, implement joint campaigns, break down silos across sectors and jurisdictions, and sign shared comment letters on funding and policies.
