Partnering with Resilient Virginia is a commitment to shaping a stronger, more resilient Commonwealth – one where communities, businesses, and institutions have the knowledge, tools, and connections to thrive amid change. As a Partner, your organization becomes part of a coordinated, statewide effort to advance resilience across ecosystems, built environment, economic activities, and community empowerment.
Partnership provides year-round visibility, access, and influence across Resilient Virginia’s programs, initiatives, and convenings. You gain the opportunity to connect with leaders in government, academia, industry, and communities while helping steer collective action on shared resilience priorities.
