Frequently asked questions
What is Resilient.Community?
Resilient.Community is a membership community that offers learning and networking experiences focused on racial justice, crisis leadership, and resilience.

Why was Resilient.Community created?
Racism is a man-made disaster that steadily and stealthily ravages Black communities. Many people in Black communities are in a perpetual state of crisis due to the compounding nature of historical and present-day racism. The impacts are experienced in the workplace; before, during, and after disasters; and all aspects of our lives.
However, we are not helpless victims…we have a long history of resilience - being able to navigate the present world and transform it for the future. Resilient.Community supports Black leaders and supporters by strengthening our knowledge of self (power within), expanding the landscape of our agency (power to), supporting our collective action (power with), and increasing our influence on traditional systems (power over).
Life is difficult...it is full of volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA) for all of us. It is even more difficult when you are trying to lead through VUCA as a Black person, Black-led organization, or ally. Although we each have a unique journey in life, we all need knowledge and relationships to build a foundation of resilience - so we can lead transformation for our households, communities, workplaces, and society.
The impact of personal, organizational, community, and national emergencies are amplified for Black people. When disasters occur, Black communities are facing the convergence of the ongoing impacts of racism, the disaster itself, and the ways that racism impacts how response and recovery occur.
