Description:The objective of this project is to increase economic resilience within the Ocean Shores community—specifically, to address the adverse effects created by seasonality associated with a tourism-dependent economy. Economic resilience is broadly defined as a system’s ability to adjust to the ever-increasing frequency of economic, social, and environmental changes within its limitations, such as geographic location, population, and industry. The term applies to the economic characteristics of an area that influence its overall resilience to disruptions. It refers to outside shocks from economic depressions, shifts in national market trends, and natural disasters that can weaken the community’s ability to regain economic stability in the aftermath.
