Disaster Case Advocacy (DCA) DCA is a supportive program involving a partnership between a disaster-impacted household and a disaster case advocate. Disaster case advocates walk beside households through the disaster recovery process. They serve as a primary point of contact assisting households in coordinating necessary services and resources to address the household’s complex disaster recovery needs.
In this partnership, advocates and households assess the family’s disaster-related unmet needs, build a recovery plan, and access available resources. Disaster-related unmet needs are those things households need to recover from the disaster.
Examples may include navigating through insurance, financial resources, and application processes; locating housing options, advocating and supporting through the rebuild process; may also include basic and immediate needs such as food, clothing, shelter or first aid, and long term needs such as financial, physical, emotional or spiritual well-being.
DCA - Eligible Households Household’s primary and occupied residence is in the county indicated in the disaster proclamation Household has disaster related needs that represent a burden that the family is unable to resolve Household members are citizens or legally residing in the United States Single point of contact to connect with resources Advocate for the household’s needs, removing barriers to recovery Household plays a lead role in their disaster recovery Iowa Individual Disaster Assistance Grant Program (IIAGP) IIAGP offers grants to families whose household’s annual income is at 200% or less of the federal poverty level.
Income levels for household sizes at 200% of the federal poverty level. $31,920 = 1 person, $43,280 = 2 people, $54,640 = 3 people, $66,000 = 4 people, $77,360 = 5 people, $88,720 = 6 people, $100,080 = 7 people, $111,440 = 8 people.
Per Iowa Code, for disasters declared after July 1, 2024, each eligible household may receive up to $7,000 for items that qualify under one of the four categories: temporary housing, food assistance, personal property, and home repair. Supporting documentation is required. The IIAGP is activated when the Governor issues a disaster proclamation turning on IIAGP for the affected counties.
Applicants have 45 days from the date of the Governor’s proclamation to apply. Check the Counties with Active Proclamations section of the disaster assistance main page for IIAGP deadlines. If a presidential disaster declaration for Individual Assistance is issued for a county for the same event, the IIAGP is automatically turned off for that county and the federal program goes into effect.

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.

Here is how the spending mandates actually stack, who is eligible, and how to build an Investment Justification that survives them.
