Climate Resilience for Communities: How States Can Protect Vulnerable Populations

The Just Economy Conference is the national event for community, business, foundation, policy and government leaders who want a nation that not only promises but delivers opportunities for all Americans to build wealth and live well. National and local luminaries, visionaries and changemakers gather to network, share ideas, learn and ask hard questions to chart out a better future.

Our session on March 27th at 2:15PM, Climate Resilience for Communities: How States Can Protect Vulnerable Populations will focus on the critical role of financial policy tools in protecting low-income communities and communities of color who are disproportionately impacted by climate change.

We will discuss how states can use financial regulations and tools to help enhance climate resilience for communities bearing the brunt of climate-related financial risks like mortgage redlining, rising insurance costs, and disaster-related damages.

Join us as we share actionable insights for policymakers, financial institutions, and advocates who are committed to using state-level financial tools to make a lasting impact on vulnerable communities.
