As we work to amplify the City’s efforts universally to address societal shocks and stressors relevant to our community, we have begun to meet with community members so that together, we can begin to give shape to the comprehensive resilience planning effort of the City of Austin. I am writing to extend an invitation to your board, commission, or city group to attend our upcoming Community is Resilience event on December 16, 2020. At the event we will: 1) Provide an update on City of Austin resilience efforts, 2) Engage in interactive activities on shocks and stressors, and equity in comprehensive resilience planning.
