Abstract	National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA's) Environmental Literacy Program (ELP) Community Resilience Education Theory of Change communicates the overarching philosophy guiding its grants program. It can also be used to inform project-level logic models, ensuring that a project's activities, outcomes, and goals are aligned with the ELP outcomes and goals articulated in this theory of change. Theories of change, much like logic models, are tools for planning, implementation, and evaluation of an initiative. They are broad in scope and are typically focused at the program level rather than on the individual project level. The ELP's aim in creating this theory of change is to outline the conceptual framework for the ways in which community resilience education can lead to increased community engagement and civic action, ultimately leading to a healthier, more resilient, and equitable society. This theory of change will serve a suite of purposes: (1) To provide a visual representation of the overarching philosophy that guides the current focus of the ELP grants program, informing program evaluation and future funding announcements. The theory of change is a tool to communicate the program's purpose, audiences, and activities, as well as the assumptions, intended outcomes, and ultimate end goal of ELP investments; (2) To offer current and future ELP grantees a resource to understand how their local efforts contribute to a broader, national effort to increase resilience to extreme weather, climate change, and other environmental hazards; (3) To aggregate effective approaches and outcomes identified by grantees; (4) To articulate the value of education in community, city, state, and national efforts to build community resilience to extreme weather, climate change, and other environmental hazards; and (5) To serve as a model for how environmental literacy contributes to resilience that others working in the field of community resilience might use.
