The Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) Program, administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) with CFDA number 97.042, provides $10,865,140 in formula grant funding to the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA) to strengthen and improve all-hazards emergency management capabilities across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This includes supporting preparedness for disasters and emergencies that may result from climate change through activities such as planning, training, exercises, personnel, equipment, and administrative costs. PEMA frequently issues sub-awards from this grant funding to county, municipal, tribal, and non-profit organizations to execute localized emergency preparedness initiatives. PEMA has distributed over $17 million in EMPG sub-awards to counties and other local entities, enabling them to enhance community-based emergency management services, infrastructure, and response capacities. For example, the County of Delaware received a $950,000 sub-award to expand housing assistance, workforce development, and public health programs, while Westmoreland County Courthouse used sub-grant funds for affordable housing, infrastructure projects, and public safety initiatives.
