Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 19 DAD 024 00 01

The Fiscal Year (FY) 2019 Emergency Food and Shelter National Board Program (EFSP) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DHS 19 DAD 024 00 01) is a discretionary grant administered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security through FEMA under CFDA 97.024. Its purpose is to provide federal funds via the EFSP National Board to strengthen the capacity of local social service organizations that are responding to serious economic hardship in their communities. Unlike many FEMA-related programs that focus on disaster response, this program is specifically aimed at urgent needs driven by economic crisis that is not the immediate result of a natural disaster or a man-made disaster event.

The core focus of EFSP is practical, direct assistance for people who are struggling to meet basic needs, and it does so by supplementing and expanding what local nonprofit and government agencies are already doing. In practice, that typically means helping front-line service providers maintain or increase their ability to deliver emergency supports such as food assistance, emergency shelter, and related stabilizing services that keep households from falling deeper into crisis. The program structure emphasizes local delivery, meaning funds flow through the National Board framework to support on-the-ground agencies that already have the community presence, referral networks, and operational systems to get help to people quickly.

This opportunity was created on April 30, 2019, with an original application closing date of May 31, 2019. The listing indicates an expected number of awards of 1, which aligns with the way EFSP is often organized at the federal level: a single overarching award or allocation can be made to support the National Board mechanism that then guides distribution to local jurisdictions and participating agencies. The posted award ceiling is listed as 0, which usually signals that the public notice is not specifying a maximum amount within the announcement itself, rather than indicating that no funds are available. For applicants, that generally means award size and sub-allocations are determined through the program’s allocation and board processes rather than a simple per-applicant cap stated in the notice.

Eligibility is labeled broadly as "Others" with an instruction to consult additional eligibility information, reflecting that EFSP commonly works through a defined National Board and local board structure and funds are typically accessed by qualifying local nonprofit and governmental social service agencies that meet program requirements. In general terms, the intent is to reach organizations that provide emergency food and shelter services and can demonstrate the capacity to administer federal funds responsibly while delivering immediate assistance to people in need.
