Getting Money to the Ground: Funding Resilience in LMI Communities 

Rising energy costs, the impacts of shifting average local temperatures, and the increasing frequency of extreme weather events and disasters create challenges for low- and moderate-income (LMI) households.

Drawing on a recently published SF Fed report highlighting models for resilience and energy cost savings across the western US, this session will share examples of innovative programs and investments that can increase the resilience of LMI communities to disasters, extreme temperatures, and weather events.
