New Website for Assistance to Firefighters Grants Programs

Beginning on April 1, 2011, the website where first responders apply for all Assistance to Firefighters Grants Programs will change its current web site address from www.firegrantsupport.com to the FEMA website at www.fema.gov/firegrants.

We are working to make all information more easily accessible and more user friendly for first responders and having two different web portals for information just didn’t make sense.

All applications for FEMA’s fire grant programs including the Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program (AFG), the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response Grants (SAFER), Fire Prevention and Safety Grants (FP&S) and information on the Assistance to Firefighters Station Construction Grants (SCG) will now be located at www.fema.gov/firegrants.

We are working to make all information more easily accessible and more user friendly for first responders and having two different web portals for information just didn’t make sense.

All fire grants program documents, awards announcements, grants management workshops, success stories and program application reports and statistics will now be available at www.fema.gov/firegrants. In short, all the old info will be right there on the new site.

Please update your bookmarks for future fire grants applications.
