## Additional Information Agency Name:Department of Homeland Security - FEMA Description:The goal of the SLCGP is to assist state, local, and territorial (SLT) governments with managing and reducing systemic cyber risk. This goal can be achieved over the course of the four years of SLCGP funding as applicants focus their Cybersecurity Plans, priorities, projects, and implementation toward addressing SLCGP objectives.
Applicants are required to submit applications that address at least one of the following program objectives in their applications: • Objective 1: Develop and establish appropriate governance structures, including by developing, implementing, or revising Cybersecurity Plans, to improve capabilities to respond to cybersecurity incidents and ensure continuity of operations.
• Objective 2: Understand their current cybersecurity posture and areas for improvement based on continuous testing, evaluation, and structured assessments. • Objective 3: Implement security protections commensurate with risk. • Objective 4: Ensure organization personnel are appropriately trained in cybersecurity, commensurate with responsibility.
The Homeland Security Act of 2002, as amended by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) , requires SLCGP grant recipients to develop a Cybersecurity Plan, establish a Cybersecurity Planning Committee to support development of the plan, and identify projects to implement using SLCGP funding.
With the FY 2022 SLCGP, recipients were directed to accomplish the following: • Establish a Cybersecurity Planning Committee; • Develop a state-wide Cybersecurity Plan, unless the recipient already has a state-wide Cybersecurity Plan; and • Use SLCGP funds to implement or revise a state-wide Cybersecurity Plan.
For those states that did not apply for FY 2022 or FY 2023 SLCGP funding, or for FY 2022 SLCGP recipients that were unable to meet the requirements listed above, please refer to Appendix A, “Program Goals and Objectives” and Appendix B, “Cybersecurity Planning Committee and Charter” for more information on the FY 2022 requirements that must be met before development of applications for FY 2024.

The 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 articleFEMA'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 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.
