The Municipal Resilience Program (MRP) provides direct support to cities and towns to complete a municipal-driven workshop process that brings together climate change information and local knowledge to identify top hazards, current challenges, and community strengths. This process identifies priority projects and strategies to improve the municipality’s resilience to all natural and climate-related hazards.
Upon successful completion of the MRP workshop, municipalities are designated as “Resilient Rhody Municipalities” which enables municipalities to apply for dedicated MRP Action Grants to implement identified projects.
