ABAG Resilience Initiative

Goal: Improve the resilience of
the Bay Area by planning to more
quickly and efficiently recover
from disasters by:
 Developing a process through
which stakeholders can build
resilience
 Identifying specific recovery
issues that require
jurisdictional coordination

Outcome: Four policy papers on governance, economy, housing and
infrastructure with recommendations for regional actions to increase
resilience

Next Steps: Implement the recommended actions in collaboration with the
SCS, Sea Level Rise Adaptation Strategy and other regional initiatives as
appropriate.
