Description

The Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP) Program is a FEMA initiative to collaboratively identify flood-prone areas with communities.

The program supports building local capability and capacity, focusing in FY 2026 on completing existing mapping projects rather than starting new ones. Eligible project types include Flood Risk Projects, Letter of Map Revision, and Project Management. The total funding for FY 2026 is $41,000,000 across 9 regions, with an expected 100 awards and a minimum award amount of $5,000,000.
