The Jan. 12
tornado outbreak in Selma and many other communities across Georgia and Alabama
left 11 people dead and a large path of destruction.
The webinar,
on Jan. 25 at 2 p.m. ET, will discuss the urgent and long-term needs
of communities affected by the outbreak. Panelists will focus on the effect of
pre-existing conditions such as racialized poverty, historical and systemic
discrimination in housing and the differences between rural and urban
communities.
Moderated by
CDP’s Director of Domestic Funds Sally
Ray, the panel will discuss the different immediate and long-term
needs in urban and rural communities and how pre-existing inequities affect
outcomes for recovery. They will also explore how
grantmakers can support communities to prepare for, respond to and recover
from these devastating disasters.
