NOAA’s boots-on-the-ground partners and information delivery programs will be utilized through this ~$50 million investment to expand dissemination of actionable, place-based climate information for hazards such as drought and heat, including for underserved communities. Funds will support the National Integrated Heat Health Information System (NIHHIS), the Climate Smart Communities Initiative (CSCI), Climate Adaptation Partnerships/Regional Integrated Sciences and Assessments (CAP/RISA), the National Drought Information System (NIDIS), and more. These investments will improve and expand efforts to advance climate information, services, and adaptation capacity with various partners including communities, local, state, and tribal governments, and others.
