Resilience is a primary function of any thriving city. No where do we see this challenge most evident than across the U.S. I-10 corridor. Whether it’s the impacts of mega drought and extreme heat in the west or hurricanes and massive floods in the east, the cities along the U.S. I-10 have had to anticipate and respond to unprecedented challenges caused by rapid climate change including failing infrastructure, poverty, public health, and affordable housing.

In this episode, Ten Across founder Duke Reiter talks to Nicole Ferrini, Chief Resilience Officer for the City of El Paso, Texas, and Abena Ojetayo, Director of Housing and Community Resilience for the City of Tallahassee, Florida about how to build resilient communities for today’s big challenges and in anticipation for the future.
