We have a vision of a Thriving, Just, Healthy, and Equitable Region. This vision is implemented through four decade-long goals of increasing Racial Equity, Thriving Youth and Families, Healthy Ecosystems and Environments, and a Just Economy.
The Youth Leadership Fund is designed to support K-12 youth in Humboldt, Del Norte, and Trinity counties in California, as well as Curry County in Oregon. The program focuses on youth leadership development, especially in the realms of environmental and community responsibility and sustainability. Applicants must illustrate how their initiatives will benefit the local environment and community. Grant amounts vary, with a maximum of $1,500 available. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis throughout the year.
