About this opportunity
The Fiscal Year 2025 Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) is a federal funding opportunity administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) focused on all-hazards emergency preparedness. The primary objective is to assist state, local, tribal, and territorial emergency management agencies in implementing the National Preparedness System and supporting the National Preparedness Goal of a secure and resilient nation. Eligible applicants include state administrative agencies or emergency management agencies, with each state permitted only one application. Key requirements include developing a Work Plan addressing three to five mutually agreed-upon priorities, demonstrating a focus on extreme weather resilience and overall emergency management capabilities. Applicants must submit their proposals through FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO) by the application deadline of August 11, 2025, with anticipated funding selection by August 23, 2025.
The grant provides a total of $319.5 million to 56 states and territories, with individual awards ranging from $825,152 to $24,392,241. The grant period runs from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2027, and requires a 50% non-federal cost share. Fundable activities include developing emergency operations plans, improving communication systems, conducting training and exercises, supporting CERT programs, and addressing capability gaps identified through threat and hazard assessments. Funds can be used for planning, organization, equipment, training, and exercises (POETE), with specific restrictions on allowable expenses. The program emphasizes building sustainable emergency management capabilities across state and local governments, with a particular focus on equity, climate resilience, and national readiness.
