Chugach Regional Resources Commission
Description: 

RRC has been working on climate change-related issues as they affect tribal lands, communities, and the subsistence resources upon which the Tribes depend. Currently, tribes do not have a strong connection to the research of the climate science community in spite of their vulnerability to climate change impacts. As such, CRRC has been identifying and addressing climate needs relative to understudied resources of high cultural value to serviced tribes and traditional knowledge. On March 18, 2016, Chugach Regional Resources Commission (CRRC) held its first annual climate change workshop in Anchorage Alaska. The report on the workshop outcomes is available here.
