Synopsis

The Cooperating Technical Partners Program (CTP) is one mechanism that FEMA and the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) use to deliver flood information to communities. CTP recipients develop flood hazard data and maps for communities to increase public awareness of flood risk and potential actions to reduce that risk.


With flood mapping capacity and capabilities, CTPs strengthen the local ability to make informed decisions about reducing flood risk. The data that the program provides also contributes to responsible planning and decision-making across government agencies and the private sector.


Please note that total FY 2026 CTP Program Funding is $41,000,000 across 9 regions.
