About this opportunity

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is offering the Fiscal Year 2024 Shelter and Services Program - Allocated (SSP-A) grant to enable non-federal entities to offset allowable costs incurred for services associated with noncitizen migrants recently encountered and released by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The primary purpose is to relieve overcrowding in short-term holding facilities of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) nonprofits, tribal governments, state/local governments, and other entities that can demonstrate the capacity to provide shelter, food, transportation, medical care, hygiene supplies, and other services. Applications are due by April 26, 2024 and must be submitted through the FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO) system.

This $300 million grant opportunity has a 36-month period of performance, with anticipated awards made by September 30, 2024. The grants are classified as Project Grants under the Shelter and Services Program (CFDA 97.141), which aims to fund services for noncitizen migrants and facility improvements in border states and major cities that have seen increased impacts from migrant releases.

Synopsis

As directed by Congress, SSP makes federal funds available to enable non-federal entities to off-set allowable costs incurred for services associated with noncitizen migrants recently encountered and released by DHS. As stated in the FY 2024 appropriation, the primary purpose of SSP is to "reliev[e] overcrowding in short-term holding facilities of [CBP]." Recipients of SSP may also seek grant funds for renovations or costs associated with modifications to existing facilities in support of individuals who have recently been released from the custody of CBP. Refer to Appendix A of the NOFO for allowable activities.


The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has committed to bolstering the capacity of non-federal entities to receive noncitizens after they have been processed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and released from a DHS facility. DHS is committed to ensuring appropriate coordination with and support for state, local, and community leaders to help mitigate increased impacts to their communities as outlined in the DHS Plan for Southwest Border Security and Preparedness, issued on April 26, 2022, and updated on December 13, 2022.
