Woodwell Climate Research Center is working with under-resourced communities around the country to ensure those disproportionately impacted by climate change have access to the cutting-edge science needed for adaptation and resilience. Working in partnership with city officials and local advocates, Woodwell Climate provides free, tailored assessments of flood, heat, and other climate risks. This year, our pilot project with three municipalities expanded to encompass an additional ten communities.

Harbourton Foundation’s partnership with the Hope Center of the Eagle River Valley supports 13 mental health clinicians who provide therapeutic support to students in 15 schools, including an expansion of services this fall for elementary students. During the first semester of the 21/22 school year, 538 students (K-12) connected with Hope Center school-based clinicians for ongoing individual or group therapy sessions. The school-based clinicians documented over 5,300 interactions that include individual therapy sessions, family and group sessions, initial assessments, crisis assessments and case management. The school team is responding to intense behavioral health issues with elementary aged students who are suffering from high levels of family stress; the school team has completed suicide risk assessments for elementary aged children as young as 6 years old.

In the wake of the pandemic and disruptions to our food system, Food Recovery Network (FRN), with the support of partners such as Harbourton Foundation, collectively recovered and donated more than 1.05 million pounds of surplus food, the equivalent of over 875,000 meals donated to nearly 200,000 unique individuals experiencing hunger in 2020, FRN’s largest recovery year to date. Food Recovery Network is grateful for the support from the Harbourton Foundation as they seek to recover surplus food to serve everyone experiencing hunger in the United States.

When the pandemic hit in March 2020 Mindful Life Project watched as our underserved school communities struggled to find resources to support student learning as well as the emotional and mental well being of teachers, students and families.
