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.
