individuals and your organization • Crisis communications strategy and
implementation • Digital security advice and interventions
• Coaching leadership in managing the crisis • Crisis management tools and resources, including
the Weathering the Storms Crisis Preparedness and Response Toolkit
• Crisis Coaching during or after the crisis(es) to deal with emotional issues/trauma
What We Can Provide:

• All Rapid Response requests will be considered on a first-come first-served basis.
• Thanks to the revolving fund, organizations who receive RoadMap Rapid Response support can work with consultants at no initial cost.
• Once the crisis has been resolved, RoadMap will work with your organization to see if you can directly contribute to replenish the fund, or if a funder can contribute to the fund on your behalf.
