Comment fonctionne notre programme de bourses

SBP’s Resilience and Recovery Fellows Program is designed to meet the funding needs of small- to medium-sized communities. Our program offers capacity to community leaders and networks not only to secure the recovery assistance they need when disasters strike, but also to anticipate and withstand future extreme weather threats.

SBP uses philanthropic investment to hire, train, and support locally-based disaster resilience and recovery professionals in smaller, at-risk communities. These Fellows add capacity to local government agencies, fostering engagement with a broad range of stakeholders to spearhead initiatives aimed at securing federal and philanthropic support for mitigation and resilience projects.

Renforcer les capacités pour des projets à fort impact

Fellows will help communities understand their risk, access information, prioritize next steps, and add the capacity needed to take action.

Qui nous servons

Efforts de collaboration pour la résilience des communautés

Nos boursiers travaillent main dans la main avec les dirigeants des villes, des comtés, des régions et des États, les organisations et les entreprises pour élaborer et mettre en œuvre des projets qui renforcent la résilience des communautés face aux menaces et aux catastrophes climatiques. Ils jouent le rôle d'innovateurs, de facilitateurs et de défenseurs, en favorisant les progrès et en partageant les réussites afin d'inspirer d'autres actions.

Témoignages

"Madeleine’s experience in disaster recovery and emergency planning has been invaluable and has helped me focus on these and other critical resilience initiatives. There is no doubt that she has significantly contributed to the City of Mobile's efforts related to resilient infrastructure, disaster preparedness and emergency management. We are very fortunate to have her on the team."

Lance Slater,

Office of Resilience and Sustainability, City Of Mobile

"Will and I discussed the Rollover Pass water line as a mitigation project. He helped develop the narrative and guided us through updating a basic scope of work to ensure we meet requirements for funding applications. Thanks to Will's guidance, we were able to identify Rollover Pass and two other projects as eligible in the current Galveston County Hazard Mitigation Plan. When Galveston County called to discuss CDBG-MIT opportunities, we were prepared and were able to submit for the Rollover Pass project. I am excited to see this being funded and we appreciate all of the guidance from Will to help this happen."

I am incredibly grateful for your time, technical expertise, and responsiveness at every step of the process. Your assistance has been instrumental in helping the Town put forward a strong and thoughtful proposal that reflects our shared commitment to improving public safety and community resilience."
