Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 23 GPD 042 03 01

The Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG) Program for Region 3 is a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) / FEMA discretionary grant opportunity designed to strengthen all-hazards emergency preparedness. The program is framed around the idea that emergency management has to cover the full spectrum of risks communities face, including the growing and evolving impacts tied to climate change. EMPG is presented as one part of a broader, congressionally authorized set of national preparedness measures that DHS implements to help governments and partners plan, organize, and sustain emergency management capabilities over time.

A central purpose of this opportunity is to support DHSs strategic priority of strengthening preparedness and resilience. FEMA explicitly connects EMPG funding to the FEMA Strategic Plan for 2022-2026, emphasizing that applicants and recipients should think about how their proposed activities align with the plans three major agency-wide goals: (1) Instill Equity as a Foundation of Emergency Management, (2) Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience, and (3) Promote and Sustain a Ready FEMA and Prepared Nation. In practical terms, the notice encourages recipients to use EMPG dollars in ways that reflect these priorities, such as ensuring preparedness investments reach and benefit diverse communities, incorporating climate risk into planning and coordination, and supporting steady, sustainable readiness across emergency management programs rather than one-time improvements.

From an administrative standpoint, the listing identifies the opportunity title as "Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 Emergency Management Performance Grant Program - Region 3" with Funding Opportunity Number DHS 23 GPD 042 03 01 and CFDA number 97.042. The awarding agency is the Department of Homeland Security, specifically FEMA. The opportunity was posted on February 27, 2023, with an original application closing date of May 18, 2023. FEMA anticipated making about six awards under this Region 3 posting. The award ceiling is shown as 0 in the source data, which typically signals that the ceiling is not specified in that field and that applicants should rely on the official notice or program guidance for any applicable limits, allocations, or formulas.

Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others" with a note to refer to additional eligibility information in the full announcement. While the excerpt does not provide the detailed eligibility breakdown, EMPG is generally structured to support governmental emergency management functions and whole-community preparedness efforts, and the notice language underscores that FEMA wants recipients and partners to adopt shared priorities and coordinate across stakeholders. Overall, the opportunity is positioned less as a narrow project grant and more as a performance and capability-building program intended to help jurisdictions maintain and improve core emergency management readiness, while explicitly integrating equity and climate resilience considerations into preparedness work.
