\n\t\tHow We Mobilize Action\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

Rose’s programs are united by the belief that those closest to the problem are the most equipped to solve it. By redirecting resources to groups representing marginalized populations, we build power where meaningful change originates.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t1.

Directing Remediation Payments Back to Affected Communities<\/h3>

Rose works with the legal community to channel restitution funds back to impacted communities. As the trustee for over 600 such funds, we maximize their reach and impact to protect watersheds, ensure clean air, and mitigate pollution, such as toxins and pesticides. Our extensive field network enables us to reach grantees delivering the greatest benefits to vulnerable populations.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAward A Settlement\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t2. Grassroots Environmental Grants\n \"\"\/ \"\"

Climate Resilience Starts at the Community Level<\/h3>

The soul of our work, Rose’s grassroots funds reach small and emerging groups often left out of traditional funding streams. Small but mighty, these groups represent marginalized communities at the forefront of the environmental movement. In addition, Rose provides grassroots grantees with essential capacity building support so they can grow into strong organizations.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBuild Grassroots Power\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t3. Consumer Rights Grants\n \"\"\/ \"\"

Strengthening Consumer Protections<\/h3>

As a recipient of cy pres and mitigation funds, Rose aims to ensure all affected communities are notified and benefit from the settlement. We reach out to small and mid-size organizations, which represent underserved communities and unheard voices, and provide them with support to engage in emerging issues, such as AI, data security and internet privacy issues.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tApply For A Grant\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t4.

Building Next-Generation Environmental Justice Activists<\/h3>

Rose’s New Voices Are Rising (NVR) program is building the next generation of environmental leaders. Through our STEAM-based curriculum, frontline Bay Area youth are building the skills and confidence to confront the environmental and social issues disproportionately impacting their communities.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExplore New Voices Are Rising\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n
