The federal government knows that millions of Americans will need to move to avoid the most punishing impacts of climate change, but the country offers little organized assistance for such relocation. When communities ask the government for help, they face steep barriers — a particular problem for communities of color.
Harm’s Way is a collaborative project with Type Investigations, Columbia Journalism Investigations, and The Center for Public Integrity that follows the stories of these communities and the obstacles they have faced while trying to get aid from their government.
