Cohasset Resilience Hub Planning and Implementation
Siler Climate Consulting is working with the Town of Cohasset to build on the collaboration of social service providers that has been supported through the MVP 2.0 pilot program to lead a community-based planning process to identify and assess potential sites for a Community Resilience Hub (Resilience Hub).
The proposed Resilience Hub would serve as the physical space or spaces to co-locate local social service providers in Cohasset. Through our work with Cohasset over the last few years we’ve learned that many of the organizations who serve the most marginalized members of the community are in-need-of and seeking physical space to meet the needs of priority populations in Cohasset. Through the work of the Coalition and selection of a priority location for a resilience hub, the Town of Cohasset will build climate resilience in a way that materially centers the voices and needs of priority populations who already experience a disproportionate burden from local climate impacts.
“Siler Climate Consulting has been wonderful to work with. The team’s expertise and adaptability as we navigated a MVP 2.0 pilot program was just the steady hand that we needed to guide us to success. Working with SCC has allowed us to gain valuable insights from our community members, opened up opportunities to share our work through conference presentations, and successfully receive funding for continued work through the Municipal Vulnerability Program. SCC has been a trusted partner throughout the process, and their commitment to helping communities take meaningful climate action is evident in everything they do.”
