Humanitarian Program Webinars

Greetings,

 

The National Board for the Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP) is sharing the attached advisory released by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) regarding the humanitarian program.  Please see below for more detail.

 

On Tuesday, February 28, 2023, the Department of Homeland Security announced a $350 million funding opportunity for the Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP) National Board to fund the humanitarian portion of the program (EFSP-H). This humanitarian funding is designed to support local governments and nonprofit organizations as they assist migrant families and individuals encountered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) at the southern border.

 

Beginning March 6th, FEMA and the National Board will host a series of webinars for potential applicants of EFSP-H funds to explain how to apply, discuss any changes from the previous application guidance, and provide answers about the application process.  Six webinars will be offered via Zoom, see the schedule below.
