The Weather-Ready Nation (WRN) Ambassador program is NOAA's effort to formally recognize organizations that are improving the nation’s readiness, responsiveness, and overall resilience against extreme weather, water, and climate events. WRN Ambassadors serve a pivotal role in affecting societal change. In order to determine how many of our WRN Ambassadors are serving socially vulnerable populations and businesses, we'll use the top quartile for the CDC's Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) of 0.75-1.0 overlaid with how many WRN Ambassadors are located in those areas. The target number in FY22 will serve as our current baseline and any increase in target number in FY23 will directly correlate to our planned increase in WRN Ambassadors (~500 organizations added).
