Community Disaster Resilience Zones—census tracts that have been identified as those most at risk to hazards and climate change—were designated in September 2023 and tribal and territorial areas have also been added. Now that the initial designations have been made, the Federal Emergency Management Agency would like feedback on connecting communities to technical assistance, working with federal agencies, and detailing the experiences of private and philanthropic organizations. Additionally, the agency would like guidance on establishing a certification process for projects that are within or primarily benefit from a resilience zone. Join this listening session to contribute your thoughts on the ongoing work being done in this area.
