Resilient Futures L.A. is born of this city - its breathtaking diversity, its layered histories, and its urgent contradictions. From fire-scarred canyons to freeway-bound neighborhoods, from the shimmering coastline to the dense heart of the city, we work where vulnerability and creativity meet.

We are grounded in Los Angeles not just as a place, but as a living system of communities - complex, resilient, and full of possibility. Our work moves across borders and disciplines, guided by those who call this place home. In every corner of the region, we collaborate to reimagine what justice, safety, and sustainability can look like.

now and for the generations to come.

While our roots are firmly planted in Los Angeles, our work reaches far beyond the city. We see L.A. as a living laboratory - a place where the pressures of climate change, housing injustice, and infrastructural vulnerability converge in ways that mirror challenges across the country & The globe. The insights, models, and relationships we cultivate here inform broader movements for resilience and equity.

From wildfire recovery in the West to climate migration in the South, Resilient Futures L.A. contributes to a growing network of communities and practitioners reimagining how we adapt, rebuild, and thrive together.
