Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 25 GPD 042 01 99

The Fiscal Year 2025 Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) is a FEMA grant program under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that supports all-hazards emergency preparedness. Its central purpose is to strengthen the capacity of emergency management agencies at the state, local, tribal, and territorial levels by helping them implement the National Preparedness System and advance the National Preparedness Goal, which is aimed at building a nation that is secure and resilient. In practical terms, the opportunity is designed to fund the core emergency management capabilities that help jurisdictions prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from a wide range of threats and hazards, rather than focusing on a single type of disaster.

This opportunity is categorized as a mandatory grant in the federal listing and falls under the Disaster Prevention and Relief activity category. The assistance listing is CFDA (now Assistance Listing) 97.042. FEMA expects applications to be submitted electronically through the FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO) system, which is accessed at https://go.fema.gov/. The program is structured so that either the State Administrative Agency (SAA) or the Emergency Management Agency (EMA) may apply directly to FEMA on behalf of each state or territory, reflecting how states and territories typically organize statewide emergency management funding and oversight.

Key administrative details include the Funding Opportunity Number DHS 25 GPD 042 01 99 and a closing date of August 11, 2025. Eligible applicants include state governments and other eligible entities as specified by the program, with the main pathway being a statewide or territorial application submitted by the designated SAA or EMA. The listed award ceiling for the opportunity is $319,500,000, which reflects the maximum funding level referenced for the program at the opportunity level (individual allocations and awards are typically determined by FEMA’s program guidance and applicable formulas or criteria). The opportunity record was created on July 28, 2025.
