SPUR: Managing Disasters - Community Resilience Organizing

Community organizations have crucial roles to play in advancing communities’ capacity to withstand, adapt to, and recover from disruption events. Their deep ties to the community and their community well-being programs help them accurately identify and address local needs during emergencies. When these organizations collaborate during emergencies (flooding, fires, earthquakes), community outcomes drastically improve.
