Accelerating resiliency planning in communities across the Commonwealth. Resilient Virginia is a nonprofit organization helping the Commonwealth’s communities become more climate resilient through education, training, networking, identifying project funding, and direct consultation on resiliency planning. We support the concept that healthy, equitable, economically sound communities are the building blocks for a strong, resilient statewide economy; and the idea that an informed and aware public is the best foundation through which to build societal resilience. We recognize that environmental resources provide the natural capital that is the critical foundation for our communities’ successful functioning; and see innovation, diversity, and system redundancy as means to greater adaptive capability and risk minimization when facing natural and man-made challenges.
