The Disaster Resilience Learning Network uses a transformative approach to support leaders of color in building community resilience. Historical trauma and structural oppression have systematically excluded community leaders of color in disaster resilience planning. By creating a fundamentally new system—one that integrates a social resilience framework, healing-centered practices, and culturally grounded, trauma-informed approaches—the Disaster Resilience Learning Network is a space that fosters connections and develops effective disaster response strategies.
