The North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) was awarded a $1,492,902 Regional Catastrophic Preparedness Grant (CFDA 97.111) from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to enhance regional emergency preparedness and community resilience in the North Central Texas metropolitan area. This 3-year Project Grant, with a period of performance from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2027, will fund NCTCOG's comprehensive regional planning, coordination, training, and equipment procurement efforts to improve catastrophic incident management capabilities across multiple local jurisdictions. Key objectives include addressing the needs of underserved communities, strengthening emergency operations centers, improving public alert systems, and developing collaborative approaches to disaster response and recovery. As a regional planning agency, NCTCOG will serve as a crucial intermediary, helping to align local emergency preparedness initiatives with FEMA's strategic goals of promoting equity, climate resilience, and national readiness.
