About us
The NSW Government is committed to ensuring communities devastated by drought, bushfires, floods and now COVID-19 are getting the help they need to rebuild and recover.
Resilience NSW is the lead agency responsible for building communities of people who are

- supported during the recovery and healing process.
Our outcomes

- Critical infrastructure providers and industry collaborate to minimise the risk of disruption and quickly resume social and economic activity.
