Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 23 MT 023 07 99
The Fiscal Year 2023 Community Assistance Program - State Support Services Element (CAP-SSSE) Region 7 grant opportunity is a FEMA cooperative agreement program designed to strengthen how states support local floodplain management under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The core purpose is to fund state-led technical assistance for NFIP-participating communities and to help states evaluate how well those communities are carrying out required floodplain management activities. In practice, this means the program is aimed at reducing flood losses by improving local compliance, increasing floodplain management capacity, and making sure communities are meeting NFIP standards in a consistent, well-documented way.
A key feature of CAP-SSSE is that it reinforces the formal role of the state as the NFIP State Coordinating Agency. The designation, duties, and responsibilities tied to that role are laid out in federal regulation at 44 CFR 60.25, which establishes that states must commit to minimum floodplain management criteria and demonstrate they have the capability and responsibility to implement and support the NFIP. CAP-SSSE funding is essentially the mechanism FEMA uses to help states carry out that coordinating role by resourcing activities like community outreach, ordinance and permitting support, training, and performance reviews. The broader intent is to leverage the states familiarity with their own local governments, geography, and flood risk challenges so that guidance and oversight are practical, timely, and aligned with real conditions on the ground.
The opportunity is listed as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement instrument, which typically indicates FEMA expects an ongoing working relationship with awardees during the period of performance rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant with minimal federal involvement. The funding activity categories span areas such as disaster prevention and relief, environment, education, science and technology, and regional development, reflecting how floodplain management touches public safety, land use, hazard mitigation, and long-term community resilience.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, consistent with CAP-SSSE being a state support element rather than a direct-to-local program. FEMA anticipated making up to 52 awards under this opportunity, with an award ceiling listed at $900,000. The funding opportunity was created on May 3, 2023, and the original application closing date was June 16, 2023. The CFDA listing associated with this opportunity is 97.023, and the issuing agency is the Department of Homeland Security through FEMA.
