Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 23 GPD 134 00 01
The Fiscal Year 2023 Presidential Residence Protection Assistance (PRPA) Grant is a discretionary Department of Homeland Security program administered by FEMA that is designed to reimburse state and local government agencies for extraordinary costs they incur while protecting the President's non-federal residences. In practical terms, the grant exists to help jurisdictions cover unusual or surge expenses that go beyond routine public safety operations when a presidential residence outside the federal system requires heightened protective activity. The program is framed as a reimbursement opportunity rather than general purpose funding, meaning the core intent is to offset eligible costs that agencies have already had to take on (or must take on) specifically because of the protective mission.
Strategically, the PRPA Grant is positioned as part of DHS and FEMA's broader homeland security and threat-readiness priorities. The notice ties the program directly to the DHS Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2020-2024, particularly the goal of countering terrorism and homeland security threats and the objective to protect designated leadership, major events, and soft targets. It also aligns with the FEMA Strategic Plan for 2022-2026, emphasizing the objective of posturing FEMA to address current and emerging threats. Put plainly, the program is justified as a way to ensure local and state partners can maintain a strong protective posture around presidential locations without draining their normal operating budgets or pulling resources away from other essential community needs.
Eligibility is limited to governmental applicants at the state and local level. The opportunity lists state governments and city or township governments as eligible applicants, reflecting the fact that the extraordinary costs being reimbursed are typically borne by these public entities when they provide personnel, equipment, and operational support connected to protective details. The program is cataloged under Assistance Listing (CFDA) number 97.134 and is offered as a grant funding instrument under DHS/FEMA.
From a funding standpoint, the notice anticipates a small number of awards, reflecting that only a limited set of jurisdictions will have qualifying presidential non-federal residences and associated protective cost burdens in a given year. The expected number of awards is four, and the maximum award ceiling is $3,000,000. These figures suggest the program is targeted and incident-driven rather than broadly competitive across many applicants, with awards likely sized to match the scale of documented extraordinary protective costs.
Applications are submitted through FEMA's Grants Outcomes (GO) system, which is FEMA's online portal for grant application and management. Applicants are directed to apply via https://go.fema.gov/. The funding opportunity was created on October 26, 2023, and the original application closing date was December 8, 2023. The official opportunity number is DHS 23 GPD 134 00 01, which applicants would use to locate the notice and associated application package in GO and in related grant listings.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a focused reimbursement program intended to keep state and local agencies financially whole when they are called upon to support the protection of the President at non-federal residential locations, while simultaneously advancing DHS and FEMA strategic objectives related to leadership protection and preparedness against evolving threats.Apply for DHS 23 GPD 134 00 01
