Homeland Security Grant Program is run by Department of Homeland Security. From fiscal 2021 to 2025 it awarded $5.4 billion in 369 grants, about $14.6 million per award.

## Objectives

The objective of the FY 2026 HSGP is to fund State, Local, Tribal, Territorial (SLTT) government efforts to prevent terrorism and prepare the Nation for threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk to the security of the United States. HSGP consists of three components: the State Homeland Security Program (SHSP), Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI), and Operation Stone Garden (OPSG). SHSP supports state, local, tribal, and territorial preparedness activities in efforts to build, sustain, and deliver the capabilities necessary to prevent, prepare for, protect against, mitigate, and respond to acts of terrorism. UASI assists high-threat, high-density Urban Areas in efforts to build, sustain, and deliver the capabilities necessary to prevent, prepare for, protect against, mitigate, and respond to acts of terrorism. OPSG supports enhanced cooperation and coordination among U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), United States Border Patrol (USBP), and federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement agencies. OPSG provides funding to support joint efforts to secure the United States’ borders along routes of ingress from international borders to include travel corridors in states bordering Mexico and Canada as well as states and territories with international water borders. For FY 2026, Department of Homeland Security (DHS)/FEMA will award SHSP and UASI funds based on DHS/FEMA’s relative risk methodology pursuant to the Homeland Security Act of 2002, as amended.
