Cooperating technical partners

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) awarded a $120,000 Project Grant under the Cooperating Technical Partners (CFDA 97.045) program to The Association of State Floodplain Managers Inc. (ASFPM), a non-profit organization. The grant, with a performance period from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2026, will support ASFPM in providing a range of technical services to enhance the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and strengthen national preparedness against flooding hazards. These services include flood hazard mapping, risk assessments, data modeling, community engagement, and development of mitigation strategies aligned with FEMA's Risk Mapping, Assessment and Planning (Risk MAP) initiative. The grant funding will enable ASFPM to improve flood risk identification, increase public awareness, and inform community-level flood mitigation and resilience efforts across the United States.
