The New Jersey Cultural Alliance for Response (NJCAR) is pleased to host the following free webinar open to all libraries, museums, archives, and all historical and cultural institutions. Understanding Public Assistance: FEMA’s Program for non-profit organizations. February 7, 2024, at 1:00 PM Jennifer DiLorenzo, Branch Chief, Recovery Division of FEMA Region II, will explain FEMA’s Public Assistance Program which provides supplemental grants to state, tribal, territorial, and local governments, and certain types of private non-profits so communities can quickly respond to and recover from major disasters or emergencies. After an event like a hurricane, tornado, earthquake or wildfire, communities need help to cover their costs for debris removal, life-saving emergency protective measures, and restoring public infrastructure. FEMA also encourages protecting these damaged facilities from future events by providing assistance for hazard mitigation measures during the recovery process.
