Community resilience often focuses on growing the capacity to “bounce back” from disruptions. These can be natural disasters, human-caused events, and even war, Preparing for disruption is the only way to build resilience. As we strive to build robust community resilience programs. It is sometimes hard to figure out where to start. The program should engage and benefit the entire community. It is critical to consider all of the challenges that the community may face. It may be an economic disaster that the community is facing or a tsunami, however, together the community will survive.
Join Todd as he sits down with Andrea Davis as they discuss The Resiliency Initiative and her vision to bring programs to communities across the world.

One thought has stayed with me throughout my career, only to become exacerbated during the pandemic. The dreaded: What am I doing with my life?

The Wall Street Journal* published an article about nonessential workers questioning the purpose of their jobs. The gist is that people are looking for meaning in their daily work now that everything that matters has a definitive purpose. Now let’s push back on this idea for a second, not look for meaning from your job, but how you are making a difference in your chosen profession.

With roughly 100 million viewers each year, The Super Bowl is the most iconic event in American sports. The live broadcast dominates television ratings, and the in-person event brings thousands of visitors to regional hotels, restaurants, entertainment venues, and retail businesses, potentially impacting the local economy.

Last year, Super Bowl LVI was hosted by the City of Inglewood in Los Angeles County at the new, state-of-the-art SoFi Stadium. There will be several additional activities and attractions in addition to the Big Game, drawing visitors from near and far. But how much planning do you think you'll need to do for one football game?

Studies have shown that women disproportionately suffer the impacts of disasters, severe weather events, and climate change because of cultural norms and the inequitable distribution of roles, resources, and power, especially in developing countries. Women make up the majority of the world’s poor and are more dependent than men on natural resources for their livelihoods and survival. Women tend to have lower incomes and are more likely to be economically dependent than men. When drought or unseasonable rain, for example, threatens agricultural production, men can use their savings and economic independence to invest in alternative income sources or otherwise adapt.

Join Todd and Dr. Samantha Montano as they explore the problems and solutions that face disaster survivors and their impacts on women and children.

When a natural or human-caused disaster occurs, the process of how the situation is handled sets the tone of response and recovery.

The goal of crisis/disaster management is to respond quickly and effectively to minimize damage and position your organization or jurisdiction for recovery once the crisis has passed.

A successful process is proactive. It aims to reduce the delay in response and recovery by anticipating potential problems, such as natural disasters or safety concerns. It creates procedures for how you will react if something goes wrong.

Crisis/disaster management is crucial for high-profile businesses that can be subject to serious damage to their reputation, whatever the size or scale of the crisis.
