gram has announced its expansion to include Wake County in its restoration capacity program. The program aims to help communities recover and rebuild following natural disasters such as hurricanes, floods, and wildfires.
The expansion comes as Wake County has experienced an increase in extreme weather events in recent years, leading to more damage and displacement of residents. The program will provide resources and support to local governments, non-profit organizations, and community members to help them prepare for and respond to disasters.
“We are excited to expand our restoration capacity program to Wake County and work alongside local partners to build resilience and improve disaster response efforts,” said program director Sarah Smith. “By increasing capacity and coordination among stakeholders, we can better support communities in the wake of disasters.”
The program will focus on training and capacity-building activities, such as developing emergency response plans, conducting risk assessments, and implementing mitigation measures. It will also provide technical assistance and funding to help communities implement sustainable and effective restoration projects.
In addition to Wake County, the program is already active in several other counties throughout the state, including Mecklenburg and Guilford. The expansion to Wake County will allow the program to reach more communities and better support those in need of assistance.
Local officials and residents have welcomed the news of the program’s expansion, highlighting the importance of preparedness and collaboration in addressing the challenges posed by natural disasters. The program is set to begin its activities in Wake County in the coming months, with a focus on building partnerships and increasing resilience in the face of future disasters.
