These are themes identified in essentially all of the <br />Board's Goals and Priorities, and RTT shares that vision of a <br />community that supports the needs of every resident while <br />preserving the earth we all enjoy for future generations. We <br />believe this project has a strong natural alignment with these goals <br />because it works in a space where the needs of low-income <br />communities and homeowners overlap with the efforts toward a <br />more sustainable relationship between the whole community and <br />the natural environment. Homeowners in need will see lower <br />utility costs and safer, more comfortable homes, while we all <br />benefit from the reduction in emissions. <br />ln some projects, collaborators and partners provide essential capacity and connections. lf collaborators <br />or partners are an essential part of your project whether or not thev are receiving grant funds, please <br />use this section to provide more details. lf you are not working with collaborators or partners, please <br />feel free to write N/A in this section and move to the Social Justice and Racial Equity section. <br />13.Please describe one to three <br />key pa rtnerships/col la borations <br />that add the most value to the <br />success of the proposed <br />project: <br />RTT works diligently as a member of the Orange County Home <br />Preservation Collaborative.
