The Center for Resilient Metro-Region (CRM) at the University of Massachusetts- Amherst offers a highly effective approach for municipalities doing sustainability, resilience, and climate-related planning.
One of CRM's focus areas is to improve resilience to climate change while identifying and achieving community goals. We believe that climate resilience, smart growth and livable cities, public health, justice, and economic development can be mutually supportive goals and support our most vulnerable populations. As with all of our work, as a subdivision of state government municipal procurement from CRM is exempt from MGL Chapter 30B Procurement (Section 1 (3) and 1 (4)).
