Mitigation Programs

FEMA's Hazard Mitigation Assistance (HMA) programs offer funding to state, local, tribal, and territorial governments to implement projects that reduce the long-term risk to people and property from future disasters.   Property owners interested in mitigation programs should collaborate with their local governments, as individuals cannot apply directly for HMA funding. By participating in these programs, communities can break the cycle of disaster damage and reconstruction, leading to safer and more resilient living environments.
