Webinar, on Jan. 25 at 2 p.m. ET, Register now: Selma and beyond: Responding to tornadoes in Alabama and Georgia

 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.
