Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2013 Homeland Security National Training Program (HSNTP) Continuing Training Grants (CTG) opportunity is a discretionary federal funding program run by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA to support the development and delivery of innovative training that can be used nationwide. The central goal is to strengthen preparedness across communities by funding training programs that address emerging needs in homeland security and emergency management. Projects are expected to be national in scope, meaning they should be designed for broad applicability and potential use beyond a single jurisdiction or region. The program also encourages applicants, where feasible, to align training content and outcomes with priorities identified in the National Preparedness Report and the Capability Estimation Process, which are federal tools used to assess preparedness capabilities and gaps.
Funding is provided through cooperative agreements rather than standard grants. In practical terms, this usually means FEMA anticipates a more active role in project oversight, coordination, or technical input during the period of performance compared with a typical pass through award. The funding announcement is authorized under the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2013 (Public Law No. 113-6), Division D, Title III, State and Local Programs, which establishes the legal basis for making these awards. The program is categorized under an education and training related funding activity and is associated with CFDA 97.005, State and Local Homeland Security National Training Program.
The estimated total funding available under this opportunity is $7,811,256. The notice lists an award ceiling and award floor as $0, which generally indicates that specific minimums and maximums were not stated in the summary field and would need to be confirmed in the full announcement. Importantly, there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute a specified percentage of non federal funds to be eligible or competitive, though voluntary contributions can sometimes be used to strengthen an application depending on program guidance.
Eligibility is broad across public sector and certain nonprofit and higher education organizations. Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, city or township governments, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, public and state controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). This eligibility mix reflects the intent to reach organizations that can design, host, and disseminate training to a wide audience, including practitioners in emergency management, public safety, and related fields.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number DHS-13-NPD-005-000-02. The opportunity was posted July 24, 2013, with records showing a creation date of August 21, 2013. The original closing date was August 16, 2013, later extended to a current closing date of August 22, 2013.
