The Resource Innovation Group: TRIG's Climate Adaptation and Preparedness program conducts research and provides technical assistance to identify and evaluate effective methods and tools to encourage and support integrated, multi-dimensional climate preparedness and adaptation programs and policies.

ASTHO Climate Change Collaborative: The Association of State and Territorial Health Officials website provides tools for health agencies to prepare for and respond to health impacts related to climate change. Recently, ASTHO established a Climate Change Collaborative. The CCC website includes a sample slideshow created by the Climate Leadership Initiative for agencies’ use; a needs assessment; a fact sheet detailing the results of the needs assessment; and links to programs to increase workforce, for agencies who want to build capacity. The ASTHO website also contains 11 webinars on a range of climate change and health-related subjects, with speakers from the CDC and other institutions.
