Opportunity Summary:
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 Tribal Homeland Security Grant Program (THSGP) was a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA to help federally recognized Tribal governments strengthen homeland security and all-hazards preparedness on Tribal lands. The program was designed to support Tribes in building, sustaining, and delivering core capabilities that improve their capacity to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from terrorist attacks as well as other hazards. In practical terms, the grant aimed to help Tribes improve readiness across the full emergency management cycle, with a particular emphasis on activities that reduce terrorism-related risk while also supporting broader preparedness needs.
The notice explained that the expected outcome of using THSGP funds was a measurable increase in a Tribe's ability to prevent and prepare for acts of terrorism, enhance protective measures, strengthen response operations, and improve recovery planning. Another stated objective was helping Tribes meet their own capability targets, which typically refers to preparedness goals tied to core capabilities (for example, planning, operational coordination, intelligence and information sharing, communications, and related preparedness functions). FEMA also framed the benefit more broadly, noting that stronger Tribal preparedness can reduce overall risk not only for Tribal communities but also for nearby high-risk urban areas, States, and the Nation as a whole, reflecting the interconnected nature of regional security and emergency response.
Administratively, the opportunity was listed under Funding Opportunity Number DHS 14 GPD 067 000 02 and carried the CFDA number 97.067 (Homeland Security Grant Program). FEMA anticipated making about 50 awards, with an estimated total program funding amount of $10,000,000. The opportunity listed both an award ceiling and award floor as $0, which generally indicates the announcement did not specify minimum or maximum per-award amounts in the posted summary and that applicants needed to consult the full announcement for any detailed award sizing, allocation methods, or funding restrictions.
Eligibility was limited to Native American Tribal governments that are federally recognized. The program also included a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients would be expected to contribute a non-federal share in accordance with the rules described in the full funding announcement (the summary does not provide the match percentage or what costs could count toward it). The grant was posted on March 18, 2014, with an application closing date of May 23, 2014, and the opportunity was archived on June 30, 2014. For access issues with the full announcement, FEMA provided a point of contact through the GMD Systems Branch via the email address listed in the notice.
