Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 17 MT 023 004 99

The Community Assistance Program - State Support Services Element (CAP-SSSE) - R4 is a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered through the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Region 4, to support state-level work that strengthens how local communities participate in and carry out responsibilities under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The core purpose of this program is to help states provide direct technical assistance to NFIP-participating communities and to evaluate how well those communities are implementing required floodplain management activities. In practical terms, it is designed to improve the consistency and quality of floodplain management across communities by ensuring local officials have guidance, support, and oversight tied to NFIP standards.

This opportunity was issued as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work compared to a standard grant. The eligible applicants are limited to state governments, reflecting the program structure where states act as the primary coordinators and service providers to local jurisdictions. While the notice is framed for Region 4, the expected number of awards is 52, indicating broad coverage and suggesting that many states or state-level entities across the program footprint may receive support to carry out these functions.

The primary activities supported by CAP-SSSE revolve around two connected responsibilities. First, states use the funding to deliver technical assistance to communities that participate in the NFIP. This can include helping local floodplain administrators interpret and apply NFIP requirements, supporting communities with ordinance adoption or updates, advising on permit review practices, and assisting with public outreach or staff training related to flood risk and compliant development in flood hazard areas. Second, states use the funding to evaluate community performance in implementing NFIP floodplain management activities. These evaluations help identify gaps or weaknesses in local implementation, promote corrective actions where needed, and reinforce strong administrative practices that reduce future flood losses and maintain community standing within the NFIP.

The opportunity is cataloged under CFDA number 97.023 and was created on May 31, 2017, with an original application closing date of July 30, 2017. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0, which typically indicates that a specific maximum award amount was not stated in the public summary or that funding levels are determined through other program guidance, allocation formulas, or negotiated cooperative agreement terms rather than a single published cap. Overall, CAP-SSSE is best understood as a capacity-building and oversight support program: it equips states to help communities meet NFIP obligations, improve day-to-day floodplain management administration, and ultimately reduce flood risk through better compliance and stronger local performance.
