Welcome to the RIS

The Resource Identification Strategy database, a partnership program between the Department of Community Affairs and the Florida Public Affairs Center at Florida State University, contains information on historical and potential funding sources for disaster preparedness, response, mitigation, recovery, and long-term redevelopment projects. funded by federal, state, and other organizations. The database is designed to be representative – that is, it provides traditional and non-traditional sources and project examples rather than a comprehensive listing of projects. Program and project data will continually be added and updated.

Our intent for the database is to provide communities with important information on potential assistance before a crisis, when developing a local mitigation strategy, or after a disaster strikes. Our goal is to help Florida towns, cities and counties build stronger, disaster-resistant sustainable communities.
