Resilient Rural America Project Webinar

The Resilient Rural America Project (RRAP) empowers rural leaders and resilience professionals with practical resilience action strategies and increased capacity for rural communities and experts to work together. The Project provides self-guided online modules that take rural leaders and consultants through a streamlined process of risk assessment, identification of resilience strategies, and taking action.

The focus of the first RRAP module is to accelerate rural resilience to extreme weather by integrating resilient land use strategies into existing plan updates, such as comprehensive or hazard mitigation plans. The second module, under development now, guides the next steps to taking specific local action with practical land use policies and practices.
