Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 19 GPD 134 00 01
The Fiscal Year 2019 Presidential Residence Protection Assistance Grant (PRPA) is a discretionary federal grant program administered by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA. Its purpose is narrowly focused: it provides federal funds to reimburse state and local law enforcement agencies for personnel costs they incur when they are involved in protecting a non-governmental residence of the President, but only when that residence has been designated or otherwise identified for security by the United States Secret Service (USSS). In other words, the program is meant to help cover staffing-related expenses that state and local agencies take on in support of federally directed presidential protective operations at private (non-government-owned) presidential residences.
The legal basis for the program comes from Section 544 of the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2019 (Public Law 116-6). That statutory reference matters because it ties the grant directly to a specific congressional appropriation and defines the basic conditions under which costs are considered eligible. The central theme is cost reimbursement rather than new capacity-building: it is designed to pay back agencies for qualifying law enforcement personnel costs that were incurred due to these protective missions, rather than funding unrelated public safety initiatives.
This opportunity falls under the Law, Justice and Legal Services funding activity category and is listed under CFDA number 97.134. The funding instrument is a grant, and the opportunity category is discretionary, meaning awards are made based on the program rules and application process rather than by formula distribution. Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, and city or township governments, along with other eligible entities as described in the program’s additional eligibility guidance (referenced in the notice as a separate eligibility clarification field). The intent is to reach the governmental law enforcement bodies that actually bear the personnel costs when USSS-designated protective requirements trigger additional staffing needs at the local or state level.
From a timing and administrative standpoint, the grant opportunity was created on October 1, 2019, and originally closed on November 15, 2019. FEMA anticipated making about 10 awards under this funding round. The listed award ceiling is shown as 0, which typically indicates the public synopsis did not specify a maximum per-award cap in that field (it does not necessarily mean no funding is available; rather, the ceiling was not provided in that particular summary line).
Overall, PRPA is best understood as a targeted reimbursement mechanism. It addresses a practical budget issue that can arise when state and local law enforcement agencies must devote personnel time to presidential residence protection operations at non-governmental sites under USSS security direction. By reimbursing qualifying personnel costs, the program helps reduce the financial strain on state and local jurisdictions while ensuring that protective security requirements can be met without forcing local agencies to absorb the full cost of federally driven security missions.Apply for DHS 19 GPD 134 00 01
