Implementation of the Kīlauea Recovery & Resilience Plan (KRRP) is organized around collaboration between six Resilience Capacity Areas (RCA): Social, Cultural, Economic, Natural Environment, Built Environment, and Youth. Each RCA is led by co-chairs from the County and community and are comprised of residents who commit to taking action.

At the onset of launching Revitalize Puna in June 2021, each RCA identified a list of projects sourced from the KRRP to begin working on. By embracing an iterative process in which we ideate, create, and reflect, we can promote taking action while holding space to honestly assess collective efforts for what is working and what needs to be improved.

We started out with broad, expansive lists to explore what's possible. Actions over the last nine months and a series of evaluative discussions with RCA co-chairs serve as the basis for narrowing down what RCAs will commit to acting upon for the duration of the USDA RPIC.
