Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 23 MT 023 02 99
The Fiscal Year 2023 Community Assistance Program - State Support Services Element (CAP-SSSE) Region 2 opportunity is a FEMA-funded cooperative agreement designed to strengthen how states support local floodplain management under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The core purpose is to fund state governments so they can deliver hands-on technical assistance to participating communities and assess how well those communities are carrying out NFIP floodplain management requirements. By backing these state-led efforts, the program aims to reduce flood losses over time, improve compliance with NFIP standards, and build durable floodplain management capability at both the state and local levels.
A central feature of CAP-SSSE is its reliance on the role of the State Coordinating Agency as defined in federal regulation at 44 CFR 60.25. In practical terms, those regulations outline what FEMA expects from a state that agrees to coordinate NFIP-related support: a clear commitment to the minimum floodplain management criteria and a demonstrated ability to take responsibility for helping communities implement and maintain those standards. CAP-SSSE funding supports that coordinating function by enabling states to provide guidance, training, and problem-solving assistance to communities, as well as to conduct evaluations of community implementation. These evaluations help identify strengths, gaps, and needed improvements in local floodplain management activities, which can include administration of floodplain development rules, permitting practices, mapping and data use, and other measures tied to NFIP participation.
This is a discretionary funding opportunity administered by the Department of Homeland Security through FEMA, using a cooperative agreement mechanism, which generally signals that FEMA expects substantial involvement in the funded work (such as coordination, oversight, and programmatic collaboration) rather than a more hands-off grant structure. The eligible applicants are state governments, reflecting the program's design to work through statewide NFIP coordination and technical assistance networks rather than funding individual local communities directly under this particular opportunity.
Key opportunity details include the funding opportunity number DHS 23 MT 023 02 99 and the CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 97.023. The program is categorized across several activity areas, including disaster prevention and relief, environment, regional development, and related fields, which reflects its cross-cutting role in hazard mitigation, land use management, and resilience capacity-building. The notice lists an award ceiling of $900,000 and anticipates approximately 52 awards, indicating broad national participation with allocations that may vary by state and program needs. The opportunity was created on May 3, 2023, with an original application deadline of June 16, 2023.
Applications for this funding opportunity are submitted through FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO) at https://go.fema.gov/. This aligns with FEMA's standard grants management approach, where applicants use GO for application submission, related documentation, and award administration steps.Apply for DHS 23 MT 023 02 99
