The Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 Regional Catastrophic Preparedness Grant Program (RCPGP) for Region 5 is a discretionary FEMA grant under the Department of Homeland Security that is meant to strengthen how governments in a multi-jurisdictional region prepare for, respond to, and recover from catastrophic incidents. In this program, a catastrophic incident is defined using the National Response Framework (4th edition, 2019) as any natural or human-caused event, including terrorism, that creates extraordinary levels of casualties, damage, or disruption so severe that it affects the population, infrastructure, environment, economy, national morale, or the ability of government to function. The main idea behind the grant is that catastrophic events do not respect city or county boundaries, so effective planning has to account for regional interdependencies and coordinated action across prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery.
The funding is targeted specifically at closing known preparedness capability gaps, with particular emphasis on the core capabilities of Housing and Logistics and Supply Chain Management. In practical terms, that means applicants are expected to focus on strengthening regional approaches to things like mass care housing solutions after a disaster, the movement and distribution of critical supplies, and the broader supply chain challenges that often emerge during large-scale emergencies. The program also explicitly encourages innovative regional solutions, suggesting FEMA is looking for approaches that go beyond routine planning and instead develop scalable, collaborative models that can be adopted or adapted across multiple jurisdictions within the region.
Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, and city or township governments, reflecting the program's focus on public-sector leadership and regional coordination. The funding instrument is a grant, and the overall activity category is Disaster Prevention and Relief under CFDA number 97.111. The opportunity was created on May 20, 2020, with an original application closing date of July 15, 2020. Individual awards could be as large as $1,000,000 (the award ceiling), and FEMA anticipated making around 20 awards, indicating a competitive process with a limited number of recipients relative to potential demand.
Overall, this Region 5 RCPGP opportunity is designed to build and expand regional capacity by improving collaboration and planning specifically for high-impact, large-scale disasters. The program emphasizes that catastrophic preparedness is not just about having plans on paper, but about building coordinated regional systems that can sustain operations under extreme stress, especially in the areas of temporary housing and the logistics networks needed to supply and support affected populations.Apply for DHS 20 GPD 111 05 01
