Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 24 GPD 141 00 99
The Fiscal Year 2024 Shelter and Services Program - Competitive (SSP-C) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity run by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA. Congress directed DHS to make these funds available so that non-federal entities can offset allowable costs tied to providing services for noncitizen migrants who have been recently encountered by DHS and then released, typically after processing by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The program is framed around a clear operational goal in the FY 2024 appropriation language: relieving overcrowding in CBP short-term holding facilities by strengthening the ability of state, local, tribal, and community partners to receive and support people once they leave DHS custody.
In practical terms, SSP-C funding is meant to reimburse or cover eligible expenses that arise when communities provide shelter and related services to recently released noncitizens. The Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) describes what costs are allowable, with the specific list and boundaries for activities located in Appendix A of the NOFO. Beyond direct services, recipients may also use grant funds for renovations or modifications to existing facilities when those changes support individuals who have recently been released from CBP custody. That means the program is not limited to day-to-day service delivery; it can also support certain physical or operational improvements that expand capacity or improve conditions, so long as those costs fall within the NOFOs allowable activity rules.
The opportunity reflects DHs broader stated commitment to building the capacity of non-federal partners to manage post-processing releases in an orderly way, while coordinating with state, local, and community leaders experiencing increased impacts. The program is explicitly connected to the DHS Plan for Southwest Border Security and Preparedness (initially issued April 26, 2022, and updated December 13, 2022), signaling that SSP-C is intended to fit into a wider preparedness and coordination approach rather than functioning as a standalone shelter grant.
Eligible applicants are broad and include state governments, counties, cities or townships, federally recognized tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations (both 501(c)(3) nonprofits and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education). The listing also includes an "Others" category, indicating FEMA may allow additional types of entities as defined in the NOFO. The CFDA/Assistance Listing number for the program is 97.141, which is useful for applicants tracking compliance, reporting, and related federal assistance requirements.
Applications must be submitted through FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO) at https://go.fema.gov/. The opportunity was created on April 12, 2024, and the original application closing date was June 17, 2024. The posted award ceiling is $34,090,000. The funding opportunity number is DHS-24-GPD-141-00-99, and the geographic reference included in the posting notes the District of Columbia.Apply for DHS 24 GPD 141 00 99
