2025 Resilient Virginia Collaborative Alliance Priority-Setting Workshops

The 2025 Resilient Virginia Collaborative Alliance workshops will bring together cross-sector folks from across central and southwest Virginia to discuss the region’s goals and priorities in greater depth. The discussions will inform the development of the Rural Regional Resilience Roadmap for Central and Southwest Virginia that will strengthen the voices of rural, underserved communities both at the state level and with funding sources.

Workshops are free and open to all, and will feature guest speakers and ample time for breakout groups so attendees can explore their communities’ goals and priorities in greater depth.

Integrating Resiliency Language into Existing Plans

Our Latest White Paper

Our mission at Resilient Virginia is to help communities accelerate resiliency planning so they can remain a vibrant place to live for years to come. To this effort, we partnered with University of Virginia's Environmental Resilience Institute in January 2022 to host a group of student interns during their J-Term. These students identified resiliency language integrated in existing Comprehensive Plans, Hazard Mitigation Plans, and Master Plans from communities across Virginia and one in New Hampshire. Communities they looked at were Blacksburg, VA; Roanoke, VA; Norfolk, VA; Virginia Beach, VA; Central Shenandoah Planning District (VA); and Nashua, NH. It is our hope that these examples can help your community begin the process of adding resiliency language into your own plans.
