Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 18 NPD 005 00 02
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 Homeland Security National Training Program (HSNTP) - National Domestic Preparedness Consortium (NDPC) grant opportunity is a discretionary funding program run by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA. It is designed to strengthen national preparedness by supporting training that helps communities build, sustain, and deliver the core capabilities laid out in the National Preparedness Goal. The program sits within the broader National Preparedness System and is built around the idea that preparedness is a "whole community" responsibility, meaning meaningful readiness depends on coordinated work across all levels of government, the private sector, nonprofits, and other partners rather than any single agency acting alone.
The central purpose of the FY 2018 HSNTP/NDPC opportunity is to improve the nations training capacity and effectiveness across the full set of preparedness mission areas: Prevention, Protection, Mitigation, Response, and Recovery. In practice, this means funding training efforts that help stakeholders prevent or deter threats, protect people and critical infrastructure, reduce risk and impacts from hazards, respond effectively when incidents occur, and recover in a way that restores essential functions and strengthens resilience. The opportunity emphasizes that training is a key lever for closing preparedness gaps, especially when training is aligned with real-world operational needs and emerging risks.
A major objective of this funding is to deliver training solutions that directly address national preparedness gaps. The program also stresses the importance of linking training to exercises, so that training needs are informed by exercise results and, conversely, that exercises reinforce and validate what training is intended to achieve. Another core expectation is that supported training will incorporate and reinforce the core capabilities identified in the National Preparedness Goal, ensuring that courses and curricula are not developed in isolation but instead map to nationally recognized capability outcomes. Finally, the opportunity highlights nationwide availability and accessibility, signaling that training supported under this program should be reachable by a broad national audience rather than limited to a narrow region or a small set of participants.
From an administrative standpoint, the funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates a more active federal role in oversight, coordination, and collaboration than a standard grant. The opportunity is categorized under education (and related activities as described in the opportunity text) and is tied to CFDA number 97.005. Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in that nonprofit category). The opportunity was created on June 26, 2018, with an original application closing date of July 26, 2018. DHS/FEMA anticipated making about five awards under this announcement. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0, which typically indicates that a specific maximum award amount was not stated in the public synopsis and would instead be defined in the full funding announcement or negotiated based on scope, available appropriations, and program priorities.
Overall, the FY 2018 HSNTP/NDPC opportunity is best understood as a national-level investment in preparedness training that is capability-based, exercise-informed, and built for broad access. Its focus is not simply on delivering courses, but on producing training that measurably supports the National Preparedness Goal and strengthens the ability of the whole community to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from incidents and disasters.Apply for DHS 18 NPD 005 00 02
