CFDA 97.147: National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP) Multi-State and National Assistance (MSNEA) Grant Program

Objectives

The National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP) Multi-State and National Earthquake Assistance (MSNEA) grant program makes funds available to nonprofit organizations and institutions of higher education that possess the critical skills necessary to develop and implement regional (multi-state) and/or national earthquake risk mitigation activities. FEMA recognizes that earthquakes cannot be prevented, but their impacts on life, property, and the economy can be managed. The MSNEA grant program prioritizes reducing the risks to life and property from future earthquakes in the U.S. through the establishment and maintenance of an effective earthquake hazards reduction program. All activities funded by the MSNEA grant program must be consistent with the NEHRP vision, mission, and strategic goals.

Eligible applicants

Eligibility is restricted to those nonprofit organizations and institutions of higher education, with a demonstrated capability and capacity to develop, promote and deliver national and/or multi-state seismic risk reduction activities referenced in Appendix A (Allowable Activities) and a demonstrated ability to work collaboratively with staff and leadership at the highest levels of state and federal governments.
