Since 2001, AFG (Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program) has helped firefighters and other first responders obtain critically needed resources necessary for protecting the public and emergency personnel from fire and related hazards.

As of Sept. 18, 2023, FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) has awarded a total of $551.2 million to eligible fire departments, nonaffiliated EMS organizations, and State Fire Training Academies (SFTAs) in order to improve operational efficiencies, promote interoperability, and strengthen community resilience.

Through this funding, eligible departments can access a broad of O2X programs – including Workshops, On-Site Specialists, Screening and Assessments, and more!
