Climate Ready Community
What does this outcome look like in Richmond? Expanded access to services related to climate change, emergency preparedness, more neighborhood shelters and resilience hubs, improved climate education, more efficient housing that is disaster-ready, an empowered community with improved health and well-being, established networks with community members ready to assist their neighbor in response to climate impacts, and reduced climate-related illnesses and fatalities.
