Colorado Communities have the opportunity to fund shovel-ready and cost-effective mitigation projects through FEMA’s FY2024 Congressionally Directed Spending (CDS) Pre-Disaster Mitigation (PDM) Program. Governments with a FEMA-approved hazard mitigation plan may request funding for projects eligible under FEMA’s Hazard Mitigation Assistance programs. Please reach out to the offices of Senator Bennet, Senator Hickenlooper, and your Congressional Representative to make the initial request. If your project is selected, you will formally apply through DHSEM to FEMA in early 2024. Grant awards will likely be awarded in September 2024.
If you would like to learn more about this program, you may view the FY2023 Notice of Funding Opportunity in the links below- please note this is for last year’s cycle and is for reference only. You may also view recorded webinars from last year’s cycle in the links.
