About Us

Problem-solving in the present to safeguard the future.

We are in the process of developing three “pillars” to help build coastal resilience competence among local decision-makers:

1

Coastal Resilience Clearinghouse (CRC)

Harnessing the power of AI, the CRC will be an online resource accessible to everyone to significantly enhance their coastal resilience data accessibility, empowering communities to make informed decisions. The initiative will prioritize data accessibility by aggregating information from diverse sources and presenting it in a user-friendly format and catering to individuals with varying levels of expertise. The interface will include a guided experience to discover new information based on specific needs. Decision-makers in under-resourced communities will establish direct links to data from other coastal regions and specialists.

2

Regional Advisory Board (RAB)

The RAB will be composed of inter-disciplinary decision-makers, specialists, and community members to function as a coastal resilience backbone advisory body for communities within its region. The RAB will facilitate connections between community members, local decision-makers, and resources, thereby supporting better coordination of coastal resilience initiatives across communities.

3

Coastal Resilience Youth Corps (CRYC)

CSRS will identify, train and disseminate high school, junior/community college, and university student leaders in their coastal communities to raise awareness of the RAB and CRC to help them achieve the resilience goals of the RAB and CRC under the CSRS. The CRYC students will engage with elected officials, community/religious leaders, business leaders, tribal leaders, emergency services, ports, schools, agencies or anyone requiring related information or assistance within their community. CSYC will follow the same target as the Biden Administration's Justice40 Program where at least 40% of the benefits will be directed towards disadvantaged or underserved communities.
