Stand Up for Community Resilience

Quote from Amee Raval, APEN Research Director

As wildfires, blackouts and extreme heat threaten our neighborhoods, we need to act now to keep our communities safe. That's why APEN is leading the charge in California to create resilience hubs -- trusted neighborhood institutions like schools, libraries, and community centers where people can go to charge their devices, refrigerate food or medicine, and access resources before, during, and after disaster strikes.

We are calling on the state of California to invest in creating resilience hubs across the state -- starting in the neighborhoods with the fewest resources who are often the first and worst hit by wildfires, smoke, blackouts and heat. To win these investments, we need thousands of Californians to stand up and make your voices heard. Use the form on this page to sign up to support this campaign, and we will follow up with updates on how to get involved.
