Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 23 GPD 042 01 01
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) Program - Region 1 is a discretionary grant opportunity from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA that supports all-hazards emergency preparedness. The program is framed around strengthening preparedness and resilience across communities, with an explicit emphasis on evolving risks, including those connected to climate change. In practice, this opportunity is meant to help emergency management agencies and partners maintain and improve the core capabilities needed to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from disasters and emergencies, while aligning investments with FEMA and DHS strategic priorities.
A central theme of the FY23 EMPG program is alignment with the 2022-2026 FEMA Strategic Plan, which sets three agency-wide goals: instilling equity as a foundation of emergency management, leading the whole community in climate resilience, and promoting and sustaining a ready FEMA and a prepared nation. Applicants and recipients are encouraged to think beyond short-term preparedness projects and instead use EMPG funds in ways that reinforce these longer-term objectives. That includes considering how proposed activities will reach underserved or historically marginalized populations, how plans and capabilities will adapt to climate-driven hazards and compounding risks, and how investments will sustain readiness across the broader emergency management system, not just within a single office or jurisdiction.
From the posted opportunity details, this Region 1 competition is listed under Funding Opportunity Number DHS-23-GPD-042-01-01 and CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 97.042. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is labeled as "Other," indicating FEMA expects applicants to follow the program-specific guidance for what activities fit under the EMPG umbrella rather than relying on a generic category description. The agency anticipates making six awards for Region 1. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0, which typically signals that a specific per-award maximum is not provided in the summary field and that the actual award amounts are determined by FEMA guidance, allocation formulas, or related program documentation rather than a single stated cap in the synopsis.
Eligibility is summarized broadly as "Others," with the note to consult the additional eligibility information in the full announcement. EMPG programs commonly route funding through states and territories and then onward to local partners, but the synopsis here emphasizes that applicants must rely on the official eligibility language for this specific posting. The opportunity was created on February 27, 2023, and had an original application deadline of May 18, 2023.
Overall, the intent of this grant is to strengthen emergency management capacity in a way that is measurable, sustainable, and community-centered. FEMA is signaling that competitive or well-aligned applications will not only address traditional preparedness needs, but also show how the proposed use of funds advances equity, incorporates climate resilience thinking, and supports a whole-community approach to readiness, planning, coordination, and capability building.Apply for DHS 23 GPD 042 01 01
