Working Groups

How the Black Resilience Network collaborates with each other and allies on initiatives to strengthen disaster and climate resilience.

Historic & Cultural Preservation

This Working Group leads the Historic Black Corridor initiative by developing and implementing a shared strategy for investments in protecting, promoting, and preserving Black history and culture before, during, and after disasters.

Disaster Preparedness & Mitigation

We can take proactive action to reduce the impacts of disasters and prepare Black communities to play a leadership role in response and recovery. This Working Group collaborates closely with the Disaster Response & Recovery Working Group.

Disaster Response & Recovery

This Working Group supports and guides the Black Resilience Network Emergency Operations Center (EOC). When disasters happen that impact Black communities, the EOC collaborates with members on information sharing, identifying unmet needs, facilitating resources, and coordinating advocacy.

Disaster Workforce & Business Development

This Working Group focuses on developing and implementing collaborative initiatives to increase support and professional development to current Black emergency management professionals, expand Black representation in the field, and provide resources to Black businesses within climate and disaster resilience.
