About Redwood Region Climate and Community Resilience Hub (CORE Hub)

To solve the climate emergency, the Redwood Region Climate and Community Resilience Hub (“CORE Hub”) is an affiliate incubated program and partnership at HAF/WRCF, which designs and convenes dialogues and provides technical assistance and fact-based resources in communities in the Redwood Region to support the region in its work to reorganize, relocate, and develop both built and natural systems into a general state of decarbonized resilience. To achieve climate and community resilience across the region, the CORE Hub works to de-silo the work of governments, community based organizations, and marginalized, under-represented and under-resourced participants by funding and resourcing convenings for education and decision-making with a strong, trusted, replicable process. The CORE Hub has an overarching goal: the Redwood Region can become the first proven carbon-sequestering rural region in the United States. To do this the CORE Hub is developing a replicable recipe for carbon accounting, and supporting individual project exploration within the region (such as offshore wind energy development). The CORE Hub centers equity and justice, ensuring the benefits and tangible outcomes of its work accrue to historically and currently marginalized communities first and to the

greatest extent.
