Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 22 GPD 111 04 01
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 Regional Catastrophic Preparedness Grant Program (RCPGP) for Region 4 is a discretionary grant opportunity administered by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA. It is designed to strengthen how states, counties, and local governments work together across a region to prepare for, respond to, and recover from catastrophic incidents. The program is rooted in the idea that truly large-scale disasters do not respect jurisdictional boundaries, so preparedness efforts need to be coordinated at a regional level rather than handled in isolated, agency-by-agency plans.
The funding, authorized through the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2022 (Public Law 117-103), focuses on closing known capability gaps and encouraging innovative, regional solutions to complex problems that emerge during catastrophic events. FEMA uses the National Response Framework definition of a catastrophic incident: a natural or human-caused event (including terrorism) that causes extraordinary mass casualties, widespread damage, or severe disruption affecting people, infrastructure, the environment, the economy, national morale, or government operations. Because these situations overwhelm routine systems, the grant emphasizes cohesive planning across prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery, with collaboration as the main vehicle for building capacity.
This RCPGP cycle is also explicitly aligned with the 2022-2026 FEMA Strategic Plan and its three agency-wide goals: (1) promote and instill equity as a foundation of emergency management, (2) lead a whole-of-community approach to climate resilience, and (3) promote and sustain a ready FEMA and a prepared nation. In practical terms, that means the program prioritizes projects and approaches that embed equity considerations into preparedness and that acknowledge the growing role climate-driven hazards play in catastrophic risk. The opportunity highlights that equity is not a side objective, but a strategic priority: improving outcomes for underserved and at-risk communities and helping ensure fair, just, and impartial treatment of all individuals before, during, and after disasters. It also emphasizes readiness as an outcome, meaning regional partners should come away more capable, better coordinated, and more prepared to operate together when routine systems are strained.
From an administrative standpoint, this opportunity is listed as DHS 22 GPD 111 04 01 under CFDA 97.111 and falls under the disaster prevention and relief activity category. Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, and city or township governments. The posting date was June 27, 2022, with an original application deadline of July 29, 2022. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $1,200,000, and FEMA anticipated making about 20 awards under this opportunity. Overall, the grant is positioned as a targeted investment in regional catastrophic preparedness planning and collaboration, with a strong emphasis on innovative gap-closing work that improves resilience and readiness while centering equity for communities that face disproportionate risk.Apply for DHS 22 GPD 111 04 01
