Impact Points

The catastrophic floods in Texas have highlighted the vulnerability of marginalized communities, particularly those with limited resources, to natural disasters, raising awareness about the need for equitable disaster response and recovery efforts.
The floods have prompted discussions about the inadequacies in the weather alert system, which disproportionately affects low-income and minority communities who may lack access to timely information and resources.
The tragic loss of life and displacement due to the floods may lead to increased advocacy for policies that prioritize infrastructure improvements and equitable access to emergency services for all communities.
