About this award
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) awarded Sheridan Fire District $846,738 under the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) program (CFDA 97.083) on March 19, 2026, with a performance period extending through March 18, 2029. This Project Grant supports enhanced firefighter staffing and emergency response capabilities for the Sheridan Rural Fire District in Sheridan, Oregon. The SAFER program provides direct federal funding to eligible fire service recipients to help communities meet industry minimum standards for 24-hour staffing and adequate fire protection services.
The award enables the fire district to expand frontline firefighter hiring and/or recruitment and retention activities for volunteer firefighters as core program activities. As a civilian local government entity, Sheridan Fire District will utilize this federal assistance to build internal operational capacity and strengthen its emergency response infrastructure rather than deliver services to other federal agencies. The award reflects FEMA's competitive, merit-based selection process and represents a significant portion of the district's federal grant portfolio, which totals over $1.2 million across multiple FEMA programs.
