Guides, Trainings, Toolkits, and More

Eight months ago, Richmond’s water system failed. Some were without water, others had to boil and store water for days.

Small businesses closed down. Workers were sent home without pay. Hospitals and ambulances were disrupted. And Trump took away $12 million that Richmond had been promised to fix its water system.

The young organizers participating in Richmond’s Climate Survival Incubator began leading a response. A 3-day long water survival training helped build their skills. Watch this video to take a look.

In the face of climate disasters, unstable infrastructure, and maintenance cuts, many water systems are failing. Resilient off-grid water systems offer community-based alternatives that have long sustained life on this land. 

Understanding and reconnecting with these natural systems is a foundational step toward building approaches for grassroots water resilience.
