Under the direction of Peg Elmer of Community-Resilience.org, Yellow Wood engaged in targeted strengthening of municipal hazard mitigation planning in the state of Vermont. Yellow Wood assisted in guiding and augmenting national research related to community hazard mitigation planning and resilience, identifying Vermont-centric characteristics, providing a critical review of a Vermont community hazard mitigation checklist, building a community resource guide, reviewing draft municipal plans, engaging with advisors, and training trainers in use of the checklist and community resources.
