Houston Responds

When disaster strikes, no single organization can meet every need alone. That's why we're bringing together church leaders, nonprofits, and community partners from across Houston for our next Flourish Forum, hosted in partnership with the American Red Cross.

Together, we'll explore how we can better prepare, coordinate, and respond when our neighbors need us most. From natural disasters to community crises, collaboration is key to building a stronger, more resilient city.

Every day, families are displaced by disasters and unexpected emergencies. This forum is an opportunity to learn, connect, and discover how we can work together to serve those facing their greatest time of need.

Join us as we strengthen relationships, share best practices, and equip our communities to respond with compassion, readiness, and hope.

Hurricane season is here — are you ready? 🌪️

Join Houston Responds on June 6th as we partner in the inaugural Ready 365 Emergency Preparedness Expo to help our community prepare before storms hit.
This family-friendly event will feature preparedness resources, activities, giveaways, and practical tools to help you create a plan and stay ready during hurricane season. Houston city employees and community partners work year-round to keep our city prepared but preparedness starts at home.

Come learn simple steps you can take now to protect your family later. 💙

This week Houston Responds hosted our Preparedness Webinar focused on the power of connection, collaboration, and trusted communication in times of crisis.

Churches and community organizations play a critical role in helping people stay informed, prepared, and supported before, during, and after disasters. Thank you to all of our panelists, partners, and leaders who joined the conversation and shared valuable insights on how we can better serve our communities together.

Stronger networks. Trusted partnerships. More Resilient Communities.
