The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) awarded a $411,821 Fire Prevention and Safety (FP&S) grant to the Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District in Mather, CA on September 4, 2024. The grant, funded under the Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Program (CFDA 97.044), will support the fire district's critical initiatives to enhance firefighter capabilities, safety, and community protection. The FP&S grant will enable the district to procure essential equipment and implement strategic safety programs, building on its previous success in securing substantial FEMA grants, including a $11,805,297 Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) grant in March 2025 to increase firefighter personnel. The Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District has demonstrated a consistent track record of leveraging federal funding to improve its fire suppression, emergency medical response, and community risk reduction capabilities, further evidenced by a November 2024 sub-grant award from the California Office of Emergency Services.
