Local benefits include: - Direct support for specific resiliency project needs with defined outcomes. - Increased capacity for sustainable communities and response community resilience needs. - A pipeline for future resiliency efforts. - Stronger State-local partnerships for information and expertise exchange. - A workforce with local expertise in climate change, energy, water, or social issues. - Access to affordable resources, resulting in increased capacity and hands-on training. - Increased volunteerism at the local level.
