About
The Team Behind RIA
Built by people who've done this work

Joyce Coffee
Founder & President, Climate Resilience Consulting
"I've spent more than two decades in rooms with city managers, emergency directors, and mayors who want desperately to protect their communities but don't have six months or $150,000 to spend on a plan. RIA is what I wish I could have handed every one of them on day one."
National resilience trailblazer · Architect of Chicago's first municipal climate adaptation strategy in 2007 · Author, The Resilience Advantage · MIT City Planning.

Robert Macnee, PhD

"RIA came directly out of our work with communities. We saw how difficult it was to navigate data, funding, and priorities in one place, so we built a tool that brings it together and helps teams act with confidence."
