The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) awarded the Vermont Department of Public Safety a $1,630,782.85 Project Grant under the Disaster Grants - Public Assistance (Presidentially Declared Disasters) program (CFDA 97.036). The grant provides reimbursement to state, local, tribal, and territorial government entities, as well as eligible private non-profit organizations, for emergency protective measures taken during the COVID-19 pandemic. Eligible activities include debris removal, emergency medical care, medical sheltering, vaccine administration, and community engagement efforts to save lives and protect public health and safety. As a prime recipient, the Vermont Department of Public Safety frequently administers sub-awards to local governments, law enforcement agencies, and other state entities to deliver these critical emergency response and recovery initiatives across Vermont.
