Each year, as tropical storms and hurricanes bring more rain, thousands of homes face these risks. Recent seismic activity has also highlighted the need to mitigate risks for households due to these natural disaster events.<\/p>\n

The Multi-Sector Community Mitigation Program (MSC) provides vulnerable communities the opportunity to relocate outside of risk areas, such as floodplains, liquefaction-prone land, and coastal areas threatened by rising sea levels and erosion. The communities selected to participate in the MSC Program will implement a Participatory Design process with the help of the Puerto Rico Department of Housing’s (PRDOH) resources.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_custom_heading text=”GUIDELINES” font_container=”tag:p|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1687795212539{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 15px !important;padding-right: 15px !important;padding-bottom: 15px !important;padding-left: 15px !important;}” el_class=”guiasTitles”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1731446869587{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 5px !important;padding-right: 5px !important;padding-bottom: 5px !important;padding-left: 5px !important;}” el_class=”guias-bg”]
