Austin Resilience Hubs Network

This City of Austin website describes the Resilience Hubs initiative—community-serving facilities equipped to support residents before, during, and after emergencies. The resource explains the city’s criteria for site selection, describes coordination with local organizations, and outlines the goals of supporting energy, communication, and health needs during climate and infrastructure disruptions. Resilience Hubs are central to Austin’s equity-driven climate adaptation strategy and are designed to be flexible and responsive to community needs. This resource can be used as a model by local governments, community-based organizations, and resilience planners aiming to develop similar networks of trusted, accessible spaces for crisis support.
