Community resilience should enhance the health and well-being of cities, towns and villages, facilitating access to essential resources and services that crucially reduce vulnerabilities and contribute to rapid recovery. In the wake of hardship and disaster, truly resilient communities integrate equitable shelter and housing options for each stage on the path to rehabilitation.  

In this session, learn how to apply the Social Determinants of Health framework, using an equity lens, in your community preparedness, response, and recovery plans to secure basic needs and create a stable environment for your vulnerable constituents. 

Speakers:

  • Patrick Otellini, National Affordable Housing Director, Swinerton
