The National League of Cities (NLC) is hosting a webinar on Demystifying the BRIC Grant Process: A Case Study with a Winning Agency on Friday, August 23rd, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM.
On July 2nd, 2024, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) announced selectees for its Fiscal Year 2023 Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) grant program. The total funding amount was nearly $1 billion, an astronomically high figure far exceeding a vast majority of authorized federal grant programs. The BRIC program is one of DHS/FEMA’s Hazard Mitigation grant initiatives, targeting proactive community resilience projects with a special emphasis on infrastructure. It particularly benefits disadvantaged communities, promotes projects incorporating climate resilience and nature-based solutions, and encourages the adoption of hazard-resistant building codes. Join the Lexipol Grants Team and the City of Rochester, Michigan’s Fire Chief, John Cieslik, for a closeup case study on important application components to consider when applying.
