Every community in the country has or can be affected by natural disaster. Storms, wildfires, floods, earthquakes, and other major events can have a devastating effect on both individual lives and the economies and environment on which those people rely.
The purpose of the Foundation for Community Resilience is to provide awareness, education, and tools to help community members prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural disasters.
The Foundation will focus on empowering communities with the resources needed to understand the risks, explore options, and take action to create resilient communities which are better prepared and equipped to protect life, livelihoods, and properties in the event of a disaster.
The objective of the Foundation for Community Resilience is to engage with communities to help them understand risks and options they can take in order to minimize or mitigate the impact of major weather events or other disasters.
Preparedness and resilience is an ongoing process of assessment, response, and analysis which requires constant communication and collaboration between property and business owners, residents, local and state governments, utilities, and Federal agencies.
