Description
Climate resilience is not only infrastructure—it’s also social connectedness, shared knowledge, and the ability to organize collectively. This action leverages public participation in the All American Cities program to build climate literacy, strengthen civic engagement, and expand community networks that can support long-term resilience. Public processes like this can elevate local voices, surface neighborhood needs, and create momentum for sustained action beyond a single plan. Success looks like broader participation across demographics, increased climate understanding, stronger community partnerships, and a clearer pipeline of community-supported resilience initiatives emerging from the program experience.
