Understanding Resilience in Our Community

How well our community can bounce back from tough times—by working together, supporting each other, and staying strong through change.

Big, sudden events like floods, bushfires, or emergencies that affect our daily lives and challenge our sense of safety.

Ongoing pressures like rising living costs, health issues, or housing stress that build up over time and make things harder.

The way people in our community stick together — how we trust, care for, and include one another.

Getting ready ahead of time — by planning, learning, and knowing what to do when something goes wrong.

Immediate response during an emergency – keeping people safe, helping each other and managing the situation.

The journey of getting back on our feet after a crisis — repairing, healing, and growing stronger together.
