Partnerships in Planning for Coastal Resilience 

Thursday, Dec. 14, 1 – 2 p.m. ET

Coastal areas across the country are highly vulnerable to natural disasters, which have become more frequent and severe. Through partnerships, communities can leverage new resources to help address their unique coastal hazard risks. This webinar will discuss how FEMA’s updated state and local mitigation planning policies support the need to plan for coastal hazards. It will show how efforts at both the state and local level are growing partnerships to drive coastal action.

You’ll hear how the State of Washington works across departments to support communities in moving from plans to projects. You’ll also learn how a diverse team of community partners is working together to identify mitigation projects in Crisfield, Maryland.
