Support communities in evaluating adaptation strategies, including protection, accommodation, relocation, managed retreat, and shelter-in-place options.
Assist in organizing and delivering emergency management trainings, workshops, and exercises for Tribes, AVCP staff, and community members.
Provide technical presentations and facilitate discussions on emergency planning and resilience strategies for audiences with varying levels of expertise.
Conduct research and provide technical assistance on funding opportunities, policies, and best practices related to emergency management, climate adaptation, and rural resilience.
Improve and adapt existing emergency planning frameworks to better reflect regional needs, capacities, and cultural considerations.
Lead the development and maintenance of internal emergency management plans and protocols.
Maintain accurate program documentation, including records, databases, planning documents, and outreach materials.
Support project management efforts, including creating timelines, tracking milestones, and ensuring deliverables are met.
Assist with grant reporting, compliance requirements, and budget tracking in coordination with relevant departments.
Organize and coordinate events, including community check-ins, trainings, and regional meetings.
Participate in local, regional, and statewide emergency management and climate adaptation meetings, trainings, and conferences.
