Opportunity Summary:
The Community Assistance Program - State Support Services Element (CAP-SSSE) - R8 is a discretionary federal funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Region 8, to support stronger floodplain management and better administration of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) at the state level. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during the period of performance, such as coordinating on priorities, overseeing work plans, or participating in program implementation alongside the recipient.
The purpose of CAP-SSSE is to fund state governments so they can provide direct technical assistance to local communities that participate in the NFIP and to evaluate how well those communities are carrying out NFIP floodplain management requirements. In practical terms, this involves helping communities understand and apply NFIP standards, improve local floodplain ordinances and permitting processes, and maintain compliance practices that reduce flood risk and support eligibility for federally backed flood insurance. A major component is also performance evaluation: states use these funds to review and assess local implementation of floodplain management activities, identify gaps or weaknesses, and work with communities on corrective actions or improvements.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, and the program falls under the Disaster Prevention and Relief activity category. The associated CFDA number is 97.023. The opportunity number is DHS 16 MT 023 008 99, and it was posted and created on February 3, 2016, with an application closing date of April 15, 2016 (no change between original and current closing dates). The listing indicates an expected 52 awards. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically signals that a specific maximum was not provided in the public synopsis and would need to be confirmed in the full notice or accompanying guidance.
Overall, CAP-SSSE - R8 is aimed at strengthening statewide capacity to support NFIP-participating communities through hands-on assistance and systematic evaluation, ultimately promoting consistent floodplain management, improving compliance with NFIP requirements, and reducing future flood losses.
