Through its Continuing Training Grants (CTG) program, the Department of Homeland Security Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 Homeland Security National Training Program (HSNTP) plays an important role in the National Preparedness System.
The CTG program supports building, sustaining, and delivering core capabilities through the development and delivery of training to achieve the National Preparedness Goal (the Goal), which is “a secure and resilient Nation with the capabilities required across the whole community to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from the threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk”.
Focus Areas
The FY 2021 CTG Focus Areas are:
- Public Health Emergencies; Pandemic Preparedness and Response;
- Mass Care—Community Sheltering and Relocation Assistance; and
- Equity in Tribal and Rural Preparedness.
Priorities
- Applications should include innovative training and technical assistance ideas and concepts that can help solve the tough problems that the Nation’s emergency management community is expected to confront.
- These innovations should be replicable, satisfy a specific need, and include processes where new ideas result in useful products. The FY 2021 CTG program priority areas consist of select emerging threats and gaps that align with strategic priorities that recipients are expected to incorporate into products and activities funded through the CTG program to build capability across the Nation.
