The Fiscal Year 2024 Shelter and Services Program - Competitive (SSP-C) is a federal grant opportunity administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) that provides funding to non-federal entities, including county governments, non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, 501(c)(3) nonprofits, city/township governments, tribal governments, and state governments. The primary purpose of the grant is to enable recipients to offset allowable costs incurred for services associated with noncitizen migrants recently encountered and released by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), with the goal of relieving overcrowding in short-term CBP holding facilities. Eligible activities include providing shelter, food, transportation, medical care, hygiene supplies, and facility renovations or modifications. Applications must be submitted through the FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO) system by June 17, 2024.
The SSP-C grant program has $340.9 million in total funding available, with individual awards ranging from $100,000 to over $20 million and performance periods of up to 36 months. Recipients can request up to 10% of the total funding available and must provide detailed reporting on the number of migrants served and services provided using the funds.
