- What it does
- The purpose of FEMA's PRPA grant program is to provide assistance and support for the protection of presidential residences. This program aims to enhance the security measures and capabilities of presidential residences to ensure the safety and well-being of the President of the United States and their immediate family.
- Who benefits
- DHS/FEMA grant funds may only be used for the purpose set forth in the grant, and must be consistent with the statutory authority for the award. Grant funds must be used in accordance with 2 C.F.R. Part 200. Award funds may not be used for matching funds for any other Federal award, lobbying, or intervention in Federal regulatory or adjudicatory proceedings. In addition, Federal funds may not be used to sue the Federal Government or any other government entity. Costs incurred as a result of normal agency activities (e.g., salaries incurred during normal patrol hours for security operations) are not allowable for reimbursement. Funding shall not be used for hiring new or additional personnel. Funding shall not be used for purchasing equipment.
- Who applies
- Eligible applicants are limited to state and local law enforcement and emergency response agencies , either directly or through the State Administrative Agency (SAA), that conducted protection activities associated with any non-governmental residence of the President of the United States designated or identified to be secured by the USSS. The SAA may apply on behalf of one or more eligible agencies. If the SAA submits an application on behalf of any agency, those agencies covered under the SAA’s application cannot also apply directly to FEMA for funding under the applicable year’s Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). Multiple applications may result in a delay in reimbursement and/or an application to be denied funding. Coordination between the SAA and any eligible agencies agency is therefore encouraged. Local includes designated Indian Tribes, but excludes institutions of higher education and hospitals.

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
