Knowledge Exchange for Resilience Alumni 2018-2024
Amplifying the ability to build resilience in Maricopa County and beyond
The Council of Resilience Leaders, made up of influential individuals from across the county representing private, nonprofit and public sectors, supported KER in building Maricopa County's capacity to adapt to shocks and stresses in ways that provided added benefits for its residents.
By serving as knowledgeable ambassadors for resilience work, raised the profile of mutual interests in community resilience, and provided recommendations on future opportunities, resources and potential partners, the council helped strategically broaden and deepen impact — locally, nationally and internationally.
The core responsibilities of the council were:
Build Awareness regarding the mission and work of KER. Take Action to build resilience. Award the annual Resilience Prize.
