Opportunity Summary:
The Community Assistance Program - State Support Services Element (CAP-SSSE) - R10 is a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Region 10, using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. It falls under the disaster prevention and relief category (CFDA 97.023) and is designed specifically for state governments. The core purpose of CAP-SSSE is to strengthen how National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) requirements are carried out at the local level by giving states resources to support, guide, and assess participating communities.
In practical terms, the program funds states so they can provide technical assistance to NFIP communities and evaluate how well those communities are implementing floodplain management responsibilities tied to the NFIP. That typically means helping communities understand and apply floodplain management standards, improving local administrative capacity related to flood risk and development in flood-prone areas, and conducting performance evaluations to see whether communities are meeting NFIP expectations in their day-to-day permitting, enforcement, and floodplain management activities. The emphasis is on both support (technical assistance) and oversight (evaluation of community performance), with the larger goal of improving compliance and reducing flood risk through better local implementation.
The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number DHS 16 MT 023 010 99 and was posted on February 3, 2016, with the application closing date set for April 15, 2016 (both the original and current closing dates match). The listing notes an expected 52 awards. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which usually indicates that a fixed maximum was not specified in the public synopsis or that award levels are determined by another method (for example, by formula, allocation, or subsequent negotiation) rather than a single stated cap in the announcement.
Overall, CAP-SSSE - R10 is focused on enabling states to act as the key support layer between the federal NFIP framework and local community implementation, ensuring communities have access to expertise and are periodically reviewed for performance in NFIP floodplain management activities.
