Summary

Our project is a toolkit that has templates, surveys, lists and ideas to get the community and blocks more connected and resilient. The problem we are trying to solve is how to make residents more connected within the blocks and to prepare the community better in case of an emergency event. Our toolkit is helping to solve these problems by giving the residents different tools and ideas that they may use to help the community themselves. We have learned during this process how to work with a community to create a people friendly product they can use for multiple block and residents types.
