Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 18 USFA 043 00 01
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 State Fire Training (SFT) Systems Grant Program is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA, aimed at strengthening fire service and emergency response training across the United States. The core purpose of the SFT Program is to provide direct training assistance to states so they can address and reduce training and competency gaps within the nation s fire and emergency response community. In practical terms, the program is designed to support state level efforts that improve the readiness, consistency, and quality of training systems that firefighters and other emergency responders rely on.
This opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number DHS 18 USFA 043 00 01 and is associated with CFDA number 97.043. It uses a grant as the funding instrument, and it is categorized under a funding activity label of "Other" (with the notice indicating that further clarification would be provided in the full announcement text under an explanation field). The program anticipated making approximately 50 awards, with an award ceiling of $20,000 per award. This suggests the funding was intended to support targeted, practical training related activities rather than large scale multi year overhauls, and it indicates the program likely expected many states or eligible entities to receive modest amounts of funding to address specific needs.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with a note that additional eligibility details are provided elsewhere in the complete notice. Even though the summarized excerpt does not spell out exactly which entities qualify, the program title and description indicate the emphasis is on state fire training systems, typically meaning state level training agencies, state fire training organizations, or similar state designated bodies responsible for firefighter and emergency services training coordination and standards. The creation date for the opportunity was June 4, 2018, and the original application closing date was July 5, 2018, reflecting a one month application window.
Overall, the FY 2018 SFT Systems Grant Program is best understood as a FEMA administered, DHS funded effort to bolster the capacity of state administered fire training systems. Its goal is to help states close measurable skill and competency gaps by supporting training assistance that improves the capabilities of the broader fire and emergency response workforce, ultimately contributing to safer and more effective incident response nationwide.Apply for DHS 18 USFA 043 00 01
