For many public safety agencies, grant funding helps bridge the gap between the department’s resources and its needs. Each year, agencies across the U.S. have the opportunity to apply for BILLIONS of dollars in grant funding from public and private entities. In fact, FEMA allocated $310.5 million to the Assistance to Firefighters Grant program in FY2017 and FY2016 - a $4.5 million increase in available AFG funding in FY2015.
