Building Long-Term Infrastructure for Resilience
Informed by the Urban Land Institute’s May 2025 Rebuilding Survey, which found that 61% of affected homeowners want centralized expert guidance, MCE is launching a wraparound model for providing community resources that are uniquely tailored to each resident’s needs. These tools aim to transform recovery from a fragmented process into an integrated action plan.

Our Vision for a Sustainable Recovery Model:
- A dedicated resource center in Palisades Village, open to all affected by the fires, with the aim to replicate these centers at scale
- A streamlined process for every household to move through any disaster with wraparound support
- Integrated services: legal aid, housing consultation, rebuild logistics, mental health care
- A searchable database with vetted service providers, downloadable forms, and live support chat

Mobilizing Civic Engagement (MCE) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Pacific Palisades that swiftly expanded its mission from civic empowerment to include disaster recovery after being personally impacted by the fires. By bridging professional experts with grassroots community providers, MCE is empowering Los Angeles to rebuild with strength, dignity, and clarity.
