SUMMARY:FEMA Office Hours | Updated Guide to Help Communities with Resilience Grants
DESCRIPTION:Session 1: August 15 at 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm Eastern\nRegister \nSession 2: September 12 at 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm Eastern\nRegister \nThe update consolidates information and eligibility requirements for Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA) projects addressing air quality\, drought\, extreme temperatures\, wildfire and wind. It also reflects recent policy changes to simplify program delivery through streamlined cost effectiveness methods and a lower benefit-cost analysis discount rate. \nState\, local\, Tribal and territorial governments may use the guide to navigate the application process and manage the grant lifecycle to receive critical resilience dollars. Information in the guide includes policies and processes to enable effective and consistent implementation across all HMA programs.\nHMA provides funding to reduce the risk and impact of disasters such as wildfires\, drought\, extreme heat\, hurricanes\, earthquakes and flooding. Programs in HMA are Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC)\, Flood Mitigation Assistance\, Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) and HMGP Post Fire. \nThe update follows the update last year—the first since 2015—that incorporated climate change and future conditions\, equity\, building codes\, capability and capacity building\, nature-based solutions and community lifelines as key principles for its grant programs. It was also the first guide to cover BRIC. \nThis aligns with FEMA’s “people first” approach and helps communities build climate resilience through reducing complexity and barriers to accessing our HMA grant funds. It also aligns with the 2024 FEMA Year of Resilience theme to build capacity to withstand tomorrow’s hazards.\nFEMA is offering two Office Hours sessions which provides an overview of the recent updates. Registration is now open.
