Services Built for California’s Public Institutions
Climate Planning, Built for Alignment
Sustainability Framework
Our flagship engagement — a comprehensive eight-section framework covering governance, GHG inventory, funding strategy, and implementation. Available at the regional or organizational level for county offices, school districts, college districts, and public agencies, the Sustainability Framework establishes the shared goals, equity priorities, governance structures, and data standards that make climate action durable.
Eight-section deliverable structure:
1. Executive Summary
2. Organization Profile
3. GHG Inventory
4. GHG Findings and Reduction
5. Four Pillars
6. Governance Structure
7. Funding Strategy
8. Implementation Timeline
Each section includes companion stakeholder engagement tools designed for the audiences who actually shape implementation — boards, business officials, facilities teams, students, families, and community partners.
Best for: Organizations ready for comprehensive planning, pursuing multiple concurrent funding streams, and establishing long-term sustainability infrastructure.
Climate Action Plan
For individual sites ready to develop site-level sustainability planning — a school, a college campus, or an agency facility. A site Climate Action Plan provides a GHG baseline, a four-pillar action program, a leadership structure, and a funded implementation roadmap — connecting site-level work to broader organizational and regional goals.
Grant Writing Guidance
For active framework clients pursuing the funding identified in their Implementation and Funding Strategy sections. K3 provides grant guidance and application support as a complement to the framework work — matched to your sector’s funding landscape: Proposition 4 streams, CalSHAPE, and EPA Clean School Bus for K–12; Chancellor’s Office energy programs and the utility partnership for community colleges; California Climate Investments, Inflation Reduction Act elective pay, and utility programs for public agencies.
Standalone grant-writing services are planned for a future launch.
