Resilience Action Fund
Resilience Action Fund (RAF) is a 501c3 nonprofit with a mission to empower consumers and policymakers with knowledge and tools to withstand natural hazards by investing in long-lasting resilient homes and communities. RAF believes that hazard vulnerability is primarily determined when authorities permit and consumers decide where and what they build, buy and/or occupy, and the renovation priorities they set.
