Flood Mitigation Assistance is sponsored by Department of Homeland Security. Objectives
The Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) grant program makes federal funds available to states, U.S. territories, Federally Recognized Tribal governments, and local governments to reduce or eliminate the risk of repetitive flood damage to buildings and structures insured under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). It does so with a recognition of the growing flood hazards associated with climate change, and of the need for flood hazard risk mitigation activities that promote climate adaptation, equity, and resilience with respect to flooding. These include both acute extreme weather events and chronic stressors which have been observed and are expected to increase in intensity and frequency in the future. From Fiscal Year (FY) 1996 to FY 2019, FMA obligated over $1.5 billion in federal share mitigating over 8,000 properties insured by the National Flood Insurance Program.
Performance Measures The following key performance indicators provide strategic and relevant information to decisionmakers and stakeholders about FMA’s progress and success toward achieving goals and objectives, and are based on measurable data that are available or could be feasibly collected:
• Total number of NFIP-insured properties selected that are FMA and/or NFIP defined Severe Repetitive Loss (SRL), Repetitive Loss (RL), and Substantially Damaged. • Total federal cost share funding invested in Justice40 Communities identified using version 1.0 of the Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool (CEJST). • Total dollar amount of flood losses avoided in projects or communities funded by FMA subapplications. FEMA will further assess the recipient’s performance against the program objective during the award closeout process as outlined in Section F.3.c of this funding opportunity.

Or search similar grants →According to the current listing, eligibility includes: Each state, territory, the District of Columbia, and federally recognized tribal government shall designate one agency to serve as the applicant for FMA funding. The designee is strongly encouraged to conduct outreach with disadvantaged communities as referenced in EO 14008 prior to and during the application process. Each applicant’s designated agency may submit only one FMA grant application to FEMA. Subapplications under which two or more entities would carry out the award are eligible, such as a multi-state or multi-tribal initiative; however, only one entity may be the applicant with primary responsibility for carrying out the award. Communities, including local governments, cities, townships, counties, special district governments, and tribal governments (including federally recognized tribes who choose to apply as subapplicants), are considered subapplicants and must submit subapplications to their state/territory/tribal applicant agency. Certain political subdivisions (for example, regional flood control districts or county governments) may apply and act as subapplicants if they are part of a community participating in the NFIP where the political subdivision provides zoning and building code enforcement or planning and community development professional services for that community. Contact information for the State Hazard Mitigation Officers (SHMOs) is provided on the FEMA website at https://www.fema.gov/grants/mitigation/state-contacts. Eligibility Criteria • All applicants and subapplicants must be participating in the NFIP, and not be withdrawn, on probation, or suspended. NFIP community status can be verified at https://www.fema.gov/national-flood-insuranceprogram-community-status-book. • Structures identified in the subapplication must have an NFIP policy (including a Group Flood Insurance Policy [GFIP]) in effect prior to the opening of the application period and the policy must be maintained throughout the life of the structure. The requirement of maintaining flood insurance shall apply during the life of the property, regardless of transfer of ownership of such property. If the subapplicant does not comply with this requirement, FEMA may take one or more actions as remedies for noncompliance, as appropriate. This could include disallowing all or part of the cost of the activity or action not in compliance. For additional details, see 2 C.F.R. § 200.339. • Applicants are required to have a FEMA-approved State or Tribal Hazard Mitigation Plan in accordance with Title 44 of the Code of Federal Regulations (C.F.R.) Part 201 by the application deadline and at the time of obligation of the award. More detailed information is provided in Part III, E.5, Hazard Mitigation Plan Requirement, of the HMA Guidance, available on the FEMA website at https://www.fema.gov/media-library/assets/documents/103279. • Subapplicants are required to have a FEMA-approved Local or Tribal Hazard Mitigation Plan in accordance with 44 C.F.R. Part 201 by the application deadline and at the time of obligation of grant funds for Capability and Capacity Building activities, Localized Flood Risk Reduction Project, and Individual Flood Mitigation Project subapplications. Mitigation planning subapplications are exempt from the hazard mitigation plan requirement for subapplicants only. Mitigation plan integration, while not required to be eligible for FMA, is encouraged. Local hazard mitigation plans must conform to the Local Plan Review Guide, or any subsequent local mitigation planning guide that supersedes it. • To be considered for financial assistance, all applicants must submit their FY 2023 FMA grant applications to FEMA via FEMA GO. Refer to the NOFO posted on www.Grants.gov for information on eligibility criteria. Eligible applicant types include: State (includes District of Columbia, public institutions of higher education and hospitals), U.S. Territories and possessions (includes institutions of higher education and hospitals), Federally Recognized lndian Tribal Governments, Government - General. Confirm the full requirements in the official notice before applying.

The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking launched its AI Gigafactories call on 30 July 2026 as a joint procurement, not a conventional research grant, and that distinction shapes who should respond. It seeks consortia or Special Purpose Vehicles bringing together companies, public entities, investors and other partners to establish up to seven AI Gigafactories across Europe - facilities that combine massive computing power and state-of-the-art AI processors with the software and cloud technology stacks, high-bandwidth connectivity and energy-efficient data centres needed to deliver frontier AI training, fine-tuning and inference at scale. This is the tier above the 19 AI Factories and 13 AI Factory Antennas EuroHPC already oversees, which serve SMEs and startups with free customised support; the Gigafactories are aimed at frontier-scale sovereign capacity. The financing model is blended: EuroHPC expects total private investment of more than EUR 20,000,000,000 across the EU, with successful projects receiving varying levels of EU and national co-funding calibrated to the size and range of sovereign services offered. Per-facility EU contributions have deliberately not been published, so applicants must build their own capital stack and negotiate co-funding rather than apply against a fixed grant envelope. Facilities may be established in a single Member State or span several, and cross-border developments are explicitly welcomed. The reference is EUROHPC-2026-CEI-AIGF-01 and the deadline is 12 November 2026 at 16:00 CET. Realistically this is a call for infrastructure-grade consortia with credible access to billions in capital, energy siting and hyperscale operations experience - not for individual research groups or early-stage startups, who should instead route through the existing AI Factories network.
HMGCC Co-Creation and Dstl are seeking an edge device that processes video and audio from off-the-shelf smart glasses and stitches frames into high-fidelity 3D maps for reconnaissance. The minimum deliverable is a TRL 4 proof of concept. AI, computer vision and machine learning are listed technology themes, for example algorithms that compensate for head movement while stitching frames. Essential requirements are a report on where smart-glasses data flows and who can access it, good daytime urban imagery, and a camera-based 3D map. Desirable features include low-light imaging, audio fusion, testing across several manufacturers and a three-year manufacturer roadmap, and the stretch goal is fusing audio and visual data to handle reflections and solid walls. Redesigning or physically modifying the glasses is out of scope, and data handling must comply with GDPR and manufacturer terms. The total budget is up to £60,000, about US$80,000, excluding VAT, with on average two providers funded for a 12-week project. Questions are due 29 October, pitch day is 25 November, and kick-off is targeted for January 2027. Applications close on 12 November 2026 at 17:00 UK time.

Applicants are notified on 23 November, pitch day is 7 December, and kick-off is targeted for January 2027 for a project of about 10-12 weeks. Applications close on 12 November 2026 at 17:00 UK time.
FEMA's FY2026 Homeland Security Grant Program makes more than $1 billion available for terrorism prevention and preparedness — but for the first time ties eligibility to election-security measures: hand-marked paper ballots, 5% post-election audits, and citizenship verification through the SAVE system within 120 days. Local-government groups are calling it federal overreach that could divert 20% of state grants from bomb squads and active-shooter readiness. Applications are due July 24, 2026. This is the full breakdown of the conditions, the money at stake, the controversy, and how state and local applicants should navigate it.
Read articleThe FY2026 Homeland Security Grant Program puts more than $1 billion across three programs — State Homeland Security Program, Urban Area Security Initiative ($584M across 44 cities), and Operation Stonegarden — with a July 24, 2026 deadline. But the money comes fenced: 30% to National Priority Areas, 35% to law-enforcement terrorism prevention, plus new 10% border and 3% election minimums. Here is how the spending mandates actually stack, who is eligible, and how to build an Investment Justification that survives them.
Read articleOn June 24, 2026, FEMA released more than $1.5 billion across the Homeland Security Grant Program, a $300 million Nonprofit Security Grant Program, and six infrastructure-protection programs — all with an application window closing around July 24. This is the definitive breakdown: how SHSP, UASI, Operation Stonegarden, and the transit, port, Amtrak, and intercity-bus grants differ, what the new FY2026 priorities signal, why almost none of the money comes to you directly from FEMA, and the strategy for competing through your State Administrative Agency.
