About Us
The Contra Costa Climate Action Network (Contra Costa CAN) formed in March 2019 when 15 grass roots climate action groups came together & began meeting regularly to foster new connections & discuss shared insights with a view to widen our knowledge of each other’s work and goals.
Contra Costa CAN has met regularly through September 2020 to bridge and catalyze new connections among a growing group of individuals and organizations. Our convenings have focused on highlighting different areas of climate action underway, discussion of gaps in action, and providing a space for informal conversations among advocates and activists to educate, build ties and find ways to support each other.
A major goal of the network is to connect people around issues of climate action & inspire new relationships that enables movement building.
