Pathways to racial justice and resilience are paved with reframing narratives, building knowledge and skills, being in a supportive community, and taking strategic, collective action. So, in the summer of 2020, we partnered with All Aces, Inc, BridgeBuilder Cinematic Arts, TCGT Entertainment, and Encuentro Diaspora. Each year we evolve the program for even more impactful experiences.

Boston Resilience Corps members help their neighbors with personal and community emergencies. The youth and young adults who complete our Resilience Builder program are eligible to join BRC. We provide regular opportunities for learning and engagement. We have expanded the program to provide out-of-school time and workforce development in disaster and climate resilience.

Boston Resilience Corps members and our team provide food deliveries and other resources to over 100 Black elders in the City of Boston each month. We call to check on them and if they need food that month, we bring them perishable and shelf stable groceries. We also organize focused in-person wellness checks at senior housing developments with the Boston Resilience Corps members.

The Community Communications Center provides Greater Boston residents with access to resources and support in navigating different programs and systems important to their lives. Additionally, it is the first point of contact for the Black Resilience Network Emergency Operations Center.

A coalition of Black-led organizations, towns, and researchers actively working to strengthen Black communities' ability to mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover from climate and other disasters while preserving and promoting Black history, culture, and leadership.

An online learning community with content focused on racial justice, climate and disaster resilience, and capacity building. Resilient.Community is built on a sophisticated learning management system with online courses, a newsfeed, connections between members, and an app we will be rolling out.
