Dear Partner,
This September join the Black Resilience Network (BRN) in recognizing National Preparedness Month. The 2025 theme of Preparedness Starts at Home is being reframed to Preparedness Starts in Community, a reminder that resilience is a collective action of care and impact.
📅 Black Resilience Network Preparedness Starts in Community
Date: Thursday, September 25th
Time: 1:00 PM ET, 12:00 PM CT, 10:00 AM PT
During this presentation, we will feature BRN members who will share:
Experiences in disaster recovery and resilience
Challenges Black communities face
Strengths they will build on as part of the BRN Community Hubs Initiative
*Come ready to ask questions and share your own lessons learned and practical tips — we want this to be an exchange, not just a presentation. This is an opportunity to elevate community voices, share best practices, and offer ways to collaborate.
Join us in celebrating and supporting the critical role of community organizations before, during, and after disasters.
This event is free! Registration is required: nldc.io/brn-event
We can’t wait to see you there!
In resilience and solidarity,
The Black Resilience Network Team
