MyNACCHO LoginThe Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) published two Notices of Funding Opportunity, making millions in federal funding available to help states and territories protect their communities from floods and earthquakes.
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 funding opportunity for the Community Assistance Program–State Support Services Element (CAP-SSSE) makes $15 million available to states and territories. This program is designed to support communities in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) by helping states proactively identify, prevent, and resolve floodplain management issues before flood events occur.
The FY 2025 funding opportunity for the NEHRP Individual State Earthquake Assistance makes $2 million available to states and territories. This program focuses on helping states to implement earthquake safety, mitigation, and resilience activities.
Both earthquakes and floods can happen almost anyway and with very little warning. These FEMA grant programs help states and territories conduct take proactive steps to reduce their risk and protect their communities.
The application period for both these grant programs opened on Monday, July 28 and will close on Monday, August 11 at 5:00 PM ET. All applications must be submitted in FEMA GO.
