## What this funds

The Shelter and Services Program is included in the U.S. Customs and Border Protection - Operations and Support appropriation per the FY 2025 Full-Year CR (P.L. 119-4) and the FY 2026 FEMA's Grants in this PPA help federal, SLTT governments, and the private sector build the operational capabilities needed to implement preparedness strategies successfully. Grants are the principal funding mechanism FEMA uses to commit and award federal funding to eligible SLTT, certain private non-profits, individuals, and institutions of higher learning. This PPA includes the following Level II PPAs: State Homeland Security Grant Program (SHSGP): The SHSGP assists SLTT with preparedness activities that address high-priority preparedness gaps across all core capabilities where a nexus to terrorism exists. Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI): The UASI provides assistance to high-threat, high-density urban areas in an effort to build, sustain, and and management and administration across all core capabilities. Public Transportation Security Assistance: The Public Transportation Security Assistance and Railroad Security Assistance (TSGP) provides funds to eligible publicly-owned operators of public transportation systems to protect critical surface transportation infrastructure and the traveling public from acts of terrorism and to increase the resilience of transit infrastructure. Port Security Grants: The Port Security Grant Program (PSGP) supports efforts to build and sustain core capabilities across the prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery mission areas, with a specific focus on addressing the security needs of our Nation's maritime ports. Assistance to Firefighters Grants (AFG): The AFG program helps to enhance the safety of the public and firefighters as it relates to fire and fire- related hazards by providing direct financial assistance to eligible fire departments, nonaffiliated Emergency Medical Services organizations, and State Fire Training Academies for critically needed resources to equip and train emergency personnel. Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) Grants: The SAFER program assists local fire departments with staffing and deployment capabilities in order to respond to emergencies and ensure that communities have adequate protection from fire and fire-related hazards. Emergency Management Performance Grants (EMPG): The EMPG program is a formula grant provided to States to assist in preparing for all hazards. Funds are provided to all 50 States and six territories, the District of Columbia, as well as to the Federated States of Micronesia and the Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP): The NSGP competitively provides funding for physical security enhancements and other security- related activities for nonprofit organizations that are at high risk of a terrorist attack. The NSGP also seeks to integrate the preparedness activities of nonprofit organizations with broader State and local preparedness efforts. Flood Hazard Mapping and Risk Analysis Program (Risk MAP): The Flood Hazard Mapping and Risk Analysis (FHMRA) Program includes the program for Risk Mapping, Assessment, and Planning (Risk MAP), whose mission is to deliver quality flood risk data that increases public awareness and leads to action that reduces risk to life and property through collaboration with SLTT governments. Risk MAP drives actions nationally to reduce flood risk by addressing flood hazard data update needs, supporting natural hazard mitigation planning by SLTT governments, and providing the flood-risk data needed to manage the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). These activities enable Risk MAP to deliver information necessary for flood risk reduction and disaster-resilient, sustainable community development. Regional Catastrophic Preparedness Grants: The Regional Catastrophic Preparedness Grant Program (RCPGP) builds regional capacity to manage catastrophic incidents by improving and expanding collaboration for catastrophic incident preparedness. Emergency Food and Shelter: The Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP) provides funds to nonprofit and government organizations at the local level to supplement their programs for emergency food and shelter. Next Generation Warning System (NGWSP): The NGWSP will enable the public broadcasting system to participate in the delivery and distribution of Integrated Public Alert and Warning Systems alerts using Common Alerting Protocol emergency alerts.
