In recent years, academics, urban planners, governments and community organizations have turned towards the concept of resilience for disaster risk reduction. However, despite the increase in resilience plans, policies and resources, knowledge of individuals' experiences with, and perceptions of, resilience is limited. Moreover, concerns of resource distribution and equity- who benefits and who loses from these initiatives, and who decides where, when and how resilience occurs---remain. These critiques highlight continuing tensions between the concepts of resilience and vulnerability and a growing need to understand if, and how, efforts to increase resilience at the level of the state, county or city align with a reduction in vulnerability, or, at a minimum, directly incorporate consideration for vulnerable populations into resilience policies and plans. This project explores the extent to which vulnerable populations' needs align with resilience efforts at higher levels (i.e., local/county and state). Specifically, using qualitative, semi-structured interviews, this case study examines perceptions of risk and understandings of resilience from the viewpoint of Hispanic women living in a Colorado mountain community, many of whom are service workers for mountain resorts. Further, it explores the extent to which their perceptions align with conceptualizations of resilience at the local/county level and within the Colorado Resiliency Framework (CRF). Ultimately, this research illustrates that while there exists a desire to integrate resilience into policies and practices to address vulnerable populations' needs at the local/county level and within the CRF, a comprehensive understanding of these needs is lost in translation between and across these levels.
