FY2024 AFG communications project guide (eBook)

FEMA’s Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) program helps fire departments and EMS agencies fund new equipment, including radio communications devices. The application period for FY2024 grants opens on November 12, 2024. The FY2024 AFG Communications Project Guide was developed to help agencies prepare strong applications conducive to winning awards.

Priorities of the AFG program include supporting basic radio communications with equipment like portable radios, mobile radios, in-vehicle repeaters, headsets and pagers. Mission-critical radio communications are essential to firefighters, as they offer reliability even in the most extreme conditions, are interoperable with disparate radio and broadband systems and provide lifesaving applications delivered via LMR, such as personnel accountability and fire station alerting.
