Opportunity Summary:
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 Tribal Homeland Security Grant Program (THSGP) is a discretionary grant opportunity administered by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA to help federally recognized Tribal governments build, sustain, and deliver core homeland security capabilities. The program is designed to strengthen Tribal capacity across the full range of mission areas: preventing and protecting against threats, mitigating impacts, and improving the ability to respond to and recover from terrorist attacks as well as other hazards. In practical terms, THSGP funding is meant to support preparedness investments that raise a Tribe's readiness level, help it meet identified capability targets, and reduce overall risk not only for Tribal communities but also for nearby high-risk urban areas, States, and the Nation more broadly.
This opportunity was posted on April 2, 2015, under Funding Opportunity Number DHS 15 GPD 067 000 02, with an application deadline (original and final) of May 19, 2015, and an archive date of June 19, 2015. The funding instrument is a grant, and it falls under the Homeland Security Preparedness Grant category. The associated CFDA number is 97.067 (Homeland Security Grant Program). FEMA anticipated making about 50 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $10,000,000. The notice lists the award ceiling and floor as $0, which typically signals that the specific per-award limits are not stated in that summary field and would need to be confirmed in the full announcement.
Eligibility is limited to Native American tribal governments that are federally recognized. The opportunity includes a cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants should expect to contribute a non-federal share or otherwise meet match conditions described in the full funding notice. Applicants needing the complete announcement or experiencing trouble accessing it electronically were directed to FEMA's GMD Systems Branch for support, using the email address GMD Systems Branch@fema.gov or the phone number 800-865-4076. Additional details and the full posting were available through Grants.gov at the link provided in the announcement.
