Recovery and Mitigation Grants

Hazard Mitigation Program

The Hazard Mitigation Program develops plans and manages grants that reduce or eliminate long-term risks to people and property. It is responsible for developing the Enhanced Statewide Mitigation Plan, which identifies and ranks hazards and develops mitigation strategies for each hazard.

Recovery Program

Focuses on helping communities impacted by disasters by coordinating project applications, reviewing proposals, and overseeing grant distribution in compliance with FEMA guidelines. The Grants team plays a crucial role in managing these diverse grants, from the Public Assistance Program (PA)—which handles pre-award through closeout processes, conducts damage assessments, and completes site visits—to the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP), responsible for post-award processes, technical assistance, reimbursements, and federal reporting. Through these efforts, the program ensures communities are well-prepared and resilient against future disasters.

State Public Assistance Program

The public assistance program provides supplemental Federal disaster grant assistance for the repair, replacement, or restoration of disaster-damaged, publicly owned facilities and the facilities of certain Private Non-Profit (PNP) organizations.
