BRIC DIRECT TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE

About Direct Technical Assistance

Who Is Eligible

How to Apply


ABOUT DIRECT TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Direct Technical Assistance (DTA) can provide holistic planning support at the
earliest stages to communities that may not have the capacity to start on their
own. FEMA will provide support for both project or application-specific needs
and community-wide resilience needs for up to 36 months. FEMA can connect
communities with experienced mentors who provide support and lessons learned.

HOW TO APPLY

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Communities must email one letter of interest no more than two pages to
FEMA-BRICDirectTechnicalAssistance@fema.dhs.gov no later than 3 p.m. Eastern
Standard Time on Jan. 28, 2022.

Although there is no required format for the letter of interest, please include
the following and any other information supporting the request:

 * A description of the community’s interest and need to improve capacity and
   capability to conduct mitigation activities, increase the community’s
   resilience, or identify projects to improve the community’s resilience and
   reduce risk

   activity and the staff available to commit to participate in the activity
 * Proposed deliverables and timelines, including duration of technical
   assistance
 * Community point of contact information, including name, position, email,
   address, phone

There is no requirement for either a previous BRIC grant subapplication or award
or an approved hazard mitigation plan to be considered for DTA.

FEMA will review each letter of interest and may prioritize assistance for
communities that:

 * Have not received a project subaward under BRIC, the Pre-Disaster Mitigation
   (PDM) grant program, the Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) grant program, or
   the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) within the past five years.
 * Have not received an Advance Assistance or capability- and capacity-building
   subaward under BRIC, PDM, FMA, or HMGP within the past five years.
 * Are tribal entities.
 * Are designated as economically disadvantaged rural communities (please
   include documentation to illustrate this designation with the letter of
   interest) or a disadvantaged community as defined by Executive Order 14008,
   Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home, including tribal nations.
 * Have demonstrated a compelling need (communities with significant
   disadvantaged populations, communities with multiple major disaster
   declarations within the past five years, etc.)
 * For more information on DTA, please review the Program Support Material
   (PSM).
