FEMA’s BRIC Program A Primer for Building and Fire Prevention Departments

BRIC, or Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities, is FEMA’s new $500 million mitigation grant program. It prioritizes the adoption and enforcement of hazard resistant building codes and makes funding available for adoption activities (including staff time and consultant costs), training, certifications, electronic permitting, and online access to codes and standards. Brick and mortar mitigation projects are more competitive candidates for funding based on state adopted codes and local BCEGS scores. Learn more about BRIC and building codes here.

This session features leaders from FEMA and state and local government, who will outline the opportunity for building and fire prevention departments through BRIC and share best practices for how to successfully leverage BRIC through coordination with hazard mitigation officials.
