Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC)

The BRIC program (formerly Pre-Disaster Mitigation) is designed to promote a national culture of preparedness and public safety through investments that protect our communities and infrastructure and foster resilience. Eligible entities:  Tribes, state agencies, local jurisdictions, special taxing districts that adopted a currently approved hazard mitigation plan.  An eligible entity may apply on behalf of businesses or citizens.  BRIC is a nationally competitive annual grant opportunity through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) which awards planning and project grants and provides opportunities for raising public awareness about reducing future losses before disaster strikes.
