Navigating Resilience

Go to: FloodsSevere Storm

Welcome to the Resilience Navigation Portal

This website is designed to support neighborhoods, families and individuals in Austin to find information about emergency weather preparation, recovery and response that is most important and relevant to you and your family. Whether you are planning ahead for extreme weather or dealing with it right now, we hope you can find what you need here. Please help us keep improving by giving us your input with this feedback form.
Community Resilience Trust (CRT Austin) is not a year-round response group and we do not provide a warning system. We are a collaborative. When weather is severe and if possible, CRT creates virtual space where organizers can coordinate responses with each other and sometimes with the city and county. When there is extreme weather and we are active, you will see it a section towards the top of this page.
You can use the menu at the top of the page to find your way. The accessibility button to the left will help you adjust for any disabilities. Many pages have ASL videos, family-friendly videos, and graphics with more pictures and less text. At the bottom of the page is the language tab where you can adjust the language in which you view this page.
