You  Are Invited

You are invited to join us for an exercise to discuss the Gulf of Mexico Alliance’s Community Resilience Index – a tool for coastal communities to assess their resilience to natural disasters. In planning for the future, Gulf residents, businesses, and public agencies are seeking ways for communities to better withstand and recover from future disasters. A long term Alliance goal is to assist communities in identifying ways to withstand and bounce back from stressors, reducing both immediate impacts and long-term economic losses. 

The Resilience Index is a community self assessment that provides an efficient, cost effective method of determining the
community’s capacity to reach and maintain an acceptable level of functioning and structure after a natural hazard event. The Resilience Index identifies issues the community should address before the next event, and where attention and money may be directed to serve the community best. Experienced local planners, engineers, floodplain managers, administrators and community support organizations can use existing knowledge, data, and studies to perform the self assessment.
A meeting to complete this self-assessment has been scheduled for the City of Carrabelle on January 19, 2012 from 1:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. at City Hall in
