The American Society of Adaptation Professionals (ASAP) Portal gives ASAP members a platform to access, share, and rate resources. ASAP members can use this portal to find the most up-to-date catalogue of featured resources, member projects, and reports on climate change adaptation. Members can also use this portal to rate resources, see what others in the ASAP network rate highly, and submit resources to share with others in the ASAP network. These ASAP network pages are tailored to serve the diverse, multidisciplinary group of adaptation professionals that are members of ASAP.

ASAP is a member-based organization that brings together leading adaptation professionals from a variety of sectors across the United States. By partnering with the Georgetown Climate Center, ASAP is providing a new and important platform for collaboration and sharing of resources and information on adaptation and resilience.

Through this portal, ASAP’s diverse members, including climate scientists, public health officials, natural resource managers, urban planners, and more, can come together to share and identify resources to support their work. Members can rate resources highly to help others find them, submit new resources that are not yet in the Clearinghouse, find resources that were featured in ASAP newsletters or webinars, and find resources about the work of other ASAP members.

Identification and Engagement of Socially Vulnerable Populations in the USACE Decision Making Process

From the U. S. Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) Institute for Water Resources, this primer provides guidance on better identifying and engaging with individuals and groups of people who are more vulnerable to floods based on socioeconomic factors such as lack of access to education, adequate housing, economic resources, health care, and strong social networks. The report provides strategies, tools, and examples of how to work with these vulnerable populations, stressing how active community engagement can actually lead to better decision making around water resources.

NOAA Regional Coastal Resilience Grants

March 2016

As of March 2016, NOAA’s National Ocean Service is providing up to $9 million in competitive grant awards through the Regional Coastal Resilience Grants program. These grants are being used to fund projects that are helping coastal communities prepare for and recover from extreme weather events, climate hazards, and changing ocean conditions. Awards were made for project proposals that advance resilience strategies, often through land and ocean use planning, disaster preparedness projects, environmental restoration, hazard mitigation planning, or other regional, state, or community planning efforts.
