Are you ready to make Hawai’i Climate Ready? Come join our Hawai’i Climate VISTA Corps and help us prepare Hawai’i’s vulnerable communities to adapt and become resilient to climate change impacts and disasters.
The Climate Ready Hawai’i VISTA Leader will expand on existing efforts to build state and county capacity to address climate change in the state by providing support to up to 9 members during their service year through professional development, engagement opportunities and community connections. The VISTA Lead will also support the CCMAC Coordinator through administrative support, coordination, organization of meetings and events, grant writing, research, and other various duties as assigned.

The County Equity VISTA will support the Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation Commission in coordinating climate action across state and county activities. The VISTA will enhance the capacity of the counties to apply for, coordinate, and implement grants, provide administrative support to the CCMAC, conduct outreach, and coordinate community actions and events.

Stay tuned for more VISTA roles that will open in the next few months! Contact [email protected] with questions.
Hawaiʻi is a small state with big ambitions and big actions–especially when it comes to addressing climate change.
In response to the Paris Agreement, Hawaiʻi created the Hawaiʻi Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation Commission (Commission). The Commission’s priorities are captured in Hawaiʻi’s climate change goals and targets, which can be achieved through high-impact actions. As a member of the U.S. Climate Alliance, we believe that smart, coordinated, data-driven State action can ensure that the U.S. continues to contribute to the global effort to address climate change.
