Is your community being served? NEWLY RELEASED! Semiannual Report to the Congress (10.1.17 - 3.31.18)

Are you and your community being served by your city, county, State?

Every State, Territory, County, City, jurisdictions, and organizations may be obtaining DHS funding.  Know who, and what those funds are allocated for during the funding phases, before, during, and after a disaster.

      The adage "follow the money" holds true in every community.
       Follow the money as it's requested at the local level.
       Follow the money as it's allocated when approved.
