IN PARTNERSHIP FOR BAY COUNTY

The Community Resilience Center works hand-in-hand with United Way of Northwest Florida and Rebuild Bay County to connect residents with resources and strengthen long-term recovery. Together, we're building a stronger, more resilient community.

We can’t always predict the challenges our community will face, but we can prepare to meet them together. In Northwest Florida, we’ve lived through the devastation of Hurricane Michael and the far-reaching impacts of COVID-19. Those experiences taught us how important it is to have strong networks of support and trusted places to turn when life is upended.

The Community Resilience Center was built from those lessons. By bringing together local partners, resources, and community leadership, we’re working to close gaps, strengthen our safety net, and prepare for what’s next. From emergency response to long-term recovery, the Center is committed to helping Northwest Florida families and individuals withstand crises and rebuild with confidence.

WE’RE STRENGTHENING THE FOUNDATIONS OF COMMUNITIES FOR A MORE SUSTAINABLE AND SECURE FUTURE.

DISASTER RECOVERY

Preparation is only part of the journey. When disaster does strike, the UWNWFL is here to provide immediate relief, connect families to critical resources, and support Bay County through recovery.

COMMUNITY RESILIENCE

Preparation is the first step, but true strength comes from resilience. Beyond responding to crises, the United Way helps Northwest Florida build lasting connections, supportive programs, and stronger families so our community can thrive every day.
