Mid-South Regional Resilience Master Plan
Resilience is vitally important to every single person living in the Mid-South. Climate and weather-related shocks and stressors have major impacts on safety and quality of life for all residents, regardless of age, income, race, community, etc. Mitigating these threats and building the capacity to bounce back quickly from disasters will keep residents safe and comfortable, save money and protect property, ensure the continued operation of critical services and infrastructure, and provide beneficial new public amenities.
The value of the Regional Resilience Master Plan (RRMP) is in breaking down this large and complex topic (resilience) into a manageable set of options for a better pathway forward. It aims to understand the Mid-South’s greatest resilience needs, research and select from current best practices to address them, set an agenda for prioritizing future action, and provide the resources to begin the process of implementation.
The heart of the RRMP is a set of recommendations that function as a curated toolbox of resources organized by theme and purpose.
