NC Resilient Coastal Communities Program

NC Resilient Coastal Communities Program is sponsored by North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality. Provides funding to local governments to help overcome barriers in coastal resilience and adaptation planning, boost local government capacity, and support a proactive, sustainable, and equitable approach to coastal resilience planning and project implementation.

(12/10/25) RCCP Completes First External Evaluation in Partnership with UNC: CH In 2024, DCM staff determined that the RCCP was both ready for and in need of an official, objective, science-based evaluation. This work was funded through a cooperative agreement and conducted by Dr. Miyuki Hino, an Associate Professor in the Department of City and Regional Planning at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Dr. Hino and her team conducted interviews, collected qualitative and quantitative data, and reviewed program deliverables to provide a comprehensive picture of what we have accomplished, where gaps remain, and how the program can continue to grow. Here are some of the top takeaways: The evaluation found that the RCCP is effectively reaching a wide range of coastal communities.

Participation spans all income levels, development tiers, and racial compositions, reinforcing that the program’s structure truly lowers barriers to resilience planning in the places that need it. The evaluation shows that communities are gaining real capacity and momentum through the RCCP.

Local staff told us they now have a clearer understanding of their risks, stronger partnerships, and greater confidence pursuing outside funding for the projects they developed through this process, which is precisely the type of support we aim to provide. The evaluation also highlighted that our smallest coastal towns remain underrepresented, and this is where we have the most room to grow.

Participation declines sharply in communities with fewer than 1,000 residents, mainly due to limited staffing and administrative capacity. We see this as an essential opportunity to strengthen our outreach and tailor support so these towns can fully benefit from the program.

Resilient Coastal Communities Program Overview: The N. C. Resilient Coastal Communities Program (RCCP) is administered by the Division of Coastal Management (DCM) to support a locally driven process for setting coastal resilience goals, assessing community capacity, and identifying and prioritizing projects that strengthen resilience to coastal hazards.

Funded by the N. C. General Assembly and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation , the RCCP provides both financial and technical assistance to help local governments overcome barriers to resilience and adaptation planning.

The program aims to build local capacity and advance a proactive, equitable, and sustainable approach to coastal resilience. Through a structured, four-phase planning framework, participating communities assess their vulnerabilities and develop “shovel-ready” projects tailored to their specific risks and needs.

Eligible applicants include municipal and county governments within North Carolina’s 20 coastal counties , as well as federally or state-recognized tribes. To support transparency and public access to program information, DCM maintains the RCCP Communities Dashboard , an interactive GIS viewer that shows which communities have participated in the program and where RCCP projects are located across the coast.

The dashboard allows users to explore participation by community, view project information by phase, and better understand how RCCP investments are distributed regionally. In this program, Phases 1 and 2 occur concurrently .

During these initial phases, DCM contracts directly with technical assistance providers (i.e., contractors), relieving the procurement burden that can overwhelm coastal communities facing staffing, capacity, or financial limitations. These contractors assist communities in conducting risk and vulnerability assessments, engaging stakeholders, and developing a prioritized portfolio of resilience projects.

The primary deliverables for Phases 1 and 2 are a community-specific Resilience Strategy and an accompanying Project Portfolio that identifies and ranks potential resilience investments. In Phases 3 and 4, funding is awarded directly to communities, which then manage their own procurement processes to hire engineering firms for the design, permitting, and implementation of projects identified in the earlier phases.

The four phases of the program include: Phase 1: Community Engagement and Risk & Vulnerability Assessment This phase focuses on working with local stakeholders to identify climate-related risks and assess vulnerabilities specific to the community.

Phase 2: Planning, Project Selection, and Prioritization Communities develop a resilience strategy and identify a prioritized portfolio of projects based on local needs, risk exposure, and stakeholder input. Phase 3: Engineering and Design Selected high-priority projects move into development, where communities receive support for feasibility studies, preliminary designs, and permitting readiness.

Phase 4: Project Implementation Communities implement 'shovel-ready' projects, leveraging RCCP support and external funding to build long-term coastal resilience.

Additionally, we are excited to announce that in early 2025, the Division of Coastal Management (DCM) launched a pilot program offering participating communities the opportunity to use outcomes from the RCCP to update their Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Land Use Plans (LUPs) with a stronger focus on resilience.

CAMA Land Use Plans are locally developed planning documents required under North Carolina’s Coastal Area Management Act that guide growth, development, and natural resource management in coastal communities. They serve as a key tool for aligning local policies with state coastal management goals and ensuring responsible, resilient land use in designated coastal areas.

Many communities have rapidly aging CAMA LUPs, offering the perfect opportunity to begin incorporating resilience into long-term planning.

RCCP Origins: The Resilience Evaluation & Needs Assessment (RENA) From 2016 to 2018, DCM partnered with five local governments to pilot the Resilience Evaluation and Needs Assessment (RENA) program, which laid the groundwork for today’s Resilient Coastal Communities Program (RCCP) .

As a precursor to the RCCP, the RENA program introduced a collaborative planning model to help communities assess their vulnerabilities to coastal hazards and determine where local and state efforts could be focused to reduce risks from flooding, erosion, wind, and other threats. This early initiative shaped the comprehensive planning process now used across the RCCP.

The five pilot communities were Duck, Edenton, Oriental, Pine Knoll Shores, and Hatteras Village . To explore how this work informed the RCCP, view the RENA Story Map . It outlines each community’s planning journey and highlights deliverables closely aligned with today’s Resilience Strategies and Project Portfolios.

The deliverables produced for each community can be found listed under the ' Previously Awarded Grants & Deliverables ' section below. Programmatic Information & Materials: The RCCP Planning Handbook is the primary resource for understanding the North Carolina Resilient Coastal Communities Program (RCCP). It offers a comprehensive overview of how the program operates and outlines the foundational steps required in its initial phases.

For communities and partners new to the RCCP, the Handbook is the recommended starting point, as it establishes the expectations and process for successfully completing Phases 1 and 2. Although the Handbook provides a broad overview of the full four-phase framework, it is primarily intended to guide local governments and contracted technical assistance providers through Phases 1 and 2.

It details the specific activities, deliverables, and milestones associated with each phase, and includes data sources, tools, and recommended methodologies to support successful outcomes. In addition, a Technical Appendix offers a curated collection of resilience resources that can be used to support RCCP participation or inform related resilience and adaptation efforts.

The review found that the RCCP is successfully reaching a broad range of coastal communities and lowering barriers to resilience planning through its accessible structure and support model. Communities reported gaining stronger understanding of their risks, improved coordination with partners, and greater readiness to pursue external funding for the projects developed through the program.

The evaluation also highlighted opportunities for growth. Smaller towns with fewer than 1,000 residents remain underrepresented due to limited staff capacity, pointing to a key area where targeted support could expand the program’s reach. The quality of Resilience Strategies continues to improve, though consistency around social vulnerability and natural infrastructure remains an area for refinement.

Overall, the evaluation affirms that the RCCP is building meaningful local capacity and advancing resilience across the coast while providing clear direction for strengthening the program in future rounds.

Following Hurricane Matthew, DCM conducted a coast-wide survey to assess the demand for local resilience-building efforts. The results confirmed a clear need for a formal Resilience Evaluation and Needs Assessment (RENA) framework to support coastal communities across North Carolina.

Five communities participated in the pilot program, each resulting in a unique RENA report: Year Community RENA Report 2017-2018 Oriental Assessment Link 2017-2018 Pine Knoll Shores Assessment Link 2017-2018 Duck Assessment Link 2017-2018 Edenton Assessment Link 2017-2018 Hatteras Village Assessment Link Grant Awards, Community Resilience Strategies, & Project Portfolios Resilience Updates for CAMA Land Use Plans Grant Snapshots (P1/P2; 2021-2026) Grant Awards, Community Resilience Strategies, & Project Portfolios The main deliverable for Phases 1 and 2 is a Resilience Strategy , which compiles key outcomes developed throughout the planning process.

Each Strategy includes a Project Portfolio —a list of prioritized projects that address the community’s specific coastal resilience needs. While not intended to serve as a comprehensive resilience plan, the Strategy provides a strong foundation that can later inform a full Resilience Plan or be integrated into existing local plans and ordinances.

Having a document like this helps communities clarify their goals , attract funding , and pave a more direct path to implementation . As of Autumn 2025, the Division of Coastal Management has awarded $3,246,000 in funding for Phases 1 & 2.

In addition to project design, some communities also receive funding to develop or update local ordinances that strengthen resilience to flooding and other coastal hazards or address stormwater and flood management. Most funded projects in this phase incorporate natural and nature-based solutions , such as wetland restoration and living shoreline design.

As of Autumn 2025, the Division of Coastal Management has awarded $8,128,010 in Phase 3 funding.

Grant Snapshots (P4; 2023-2026) The primary goal of Phase 4 of the RCCP is to provide funding for permitting- and construction-ready projects that advance community resilience to coastal hazards.

This phase supports the next step after engineering and design, helping communities move closer to on-the-ground implementation. Funded projects often build on work completed in earlier RCCP phases and may include nature-based solutions such as living shorelines, floodplain reconnection, or green infrastructure to manage stormwater and reduce flood risk.
