Activities or mission (Part I)

To educate engage and empower Floridians to take action and achieve a just transition for clean energy in a healthier more sustainable environment through youth education adult engagement and community organizing.

SEED PROGRAM: The SEED team continues progress in establishing trust identifying barriers and developing solutions within the target neighborhoods. Through listening sessions with neighborhood stakeholders and review of their Neighborhood First plans the SEED team identified collaboration opportunities in several areas including Neighborhood Gardens Faith community outreach Neighborhood REACH program Collaboration between Capital Area Community Action Agency and the city of Tallahassee Community benefits agreements. The SEED team produced reports to inform decision makers about how grant or alternative funding streams could help overcome barriers to solar in LMI communities. The SEED team conducted in-home assessments for energy weatherization in low-to-moderate income communities in Tallahassee. Based on this the SEED team looks in 2025 to reduce energy burden in these homes.
