Public Assistance Overview
General
The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, as
Amended (Stafford Act), Title 42 of the United States Code (U.S.C.) 5121
et. seq., authorizes the President to provide Federal assistance when the
magnitude of an incident or threatened incident exceeds the affected State,
Territorial, Indian Tribal, and local government capabilities to respond or
recover
FEMA provides assistance to these entities, as well as certain types of PNP
organizations, through the Public Assistance Program
For FEMA to provide Public Assistance, the President must declare that an
emergency or major disaster exists

The Public Assistance Program assists in the restoration of
community infrastructure, generally to “pre-disaster condition”
It is a supplemental cost reimbursement program with specific
eligibility requirements

The Federal share of eligible costs will be awarded to the recipient
for disbursement to the subrecipients

PNP Eligibility
Public Assistance may be able to provide grants to certain PNP organizations
that own or operate facilities that provide non-critical, essential governmental
services, including child care facilities.
To be eligible for Public Assistance:
A PNP organization must have a ruling letter from the U.S. Internal
Revenue Service (IRS) or satisfactory evidence from the state that it is a
nonprofit organization doing business under state law
PNPs must own or operate an eligible facility and must be open to the
general public
PNPs must be legally responsible for disaster related repairs to the facility
8
Available Disaster Assistance PNPs that provide child care services should apply simultaneously to
FEMA and the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA)
Permanent Work: For PNPs that provide non-critical, essential
governmental services, FEMA only provides Public Assistance funding for
eligible Permanent Work costs that are not covered by an SBA loan
Emergency Work: Public Assistance may provide assistance for debris
removal and emergency protective measures related to a non-critical PNP’s
damaged facility; this is not contingent upon SBA assistance
PNPs should file a claim with their insurance provider. PNPs should not
wait for an insurance settlement before filing with FEMA or SBA
FEMA will not provide assistance for work covered by an SBA loan or
insurance, or where other Federal agencies have the specific authority to
provide assistance

How to Get Assistance
Contact the State emergency management agency to obtain
information about attending an Applicant Briefing – meetings run by
the State to provide information about the application process and
potential assistance
All applicants for FEMA Public Assistance must submit a Request
for Public Assistance (RPA) through the State

Damaged Child Care Facilities
Eligible Costs
Costs to repair buildings, replace contents and equipment,
remove debris, and perform emergency work may be eligible
for reimbursement
Public Assistance grants are cost shared - typically, 75 percent
Federal and 25 percent non-Federal
For Permanent Work, Applicants should apply simultaneously
to FEMA and SBA, as FEMA only provides funding for
eligible Permanent Work costs that are not covered by SBA
11

Damaged Child Care Facilities
Temporary Facilities
Costs associated with the provision of temporary facilities to allow an
Applicant to re-establish child care services it provided prior to a
disaster may be eligible for reimbursement
Options include lease, purchase, or construction of a temporary
facility; FEMA will fund the most cost effective option
Temporary facility assistance is normally only provided for six
months; where appropriate, a longer time period may be approved
Utility, maintenance, and other operation costs are not eligible for
reimbursement
12
Child Care Services
Sheltering
FEMA reimburses State, Territorial, Tribal, and local governments for the
cost of providing licensed child care services to support sheltered populations
This includes the cost of labor, facility, supplies, and commodities
FEMA may also provide funding for the cost of child care services that the
eligible Applicant provides to other survivors, and beyond the period of
emergency sheltering, with certification that temporary child care is
necessary to meet immediate threats to life, public health and safety, or
property
This includes services such as day care for children and before- and after-
school care
13

Child Care Services

habitable and functional, shelter safety and security, shelter
management, and cleaning/restoration

or in a separate facility, as appropriate
FEMA Public Assistance coordinates with FEMA Individual
Assistance to ensure there is no duplication of benefits
Supplies and Commodities – including but not limited to food,
beverages, cots, linens, blankets, pillows, toys, and books

Child Care Services

Wrong Product
Nonprofits are inundated with unsolicited goods and waste time and resources on handling and disposal.
Wrong Time
Donations, such as mattresses, that are donated too early in the disaster recovery process can be spoiled and go to waste.
Wrong People
During the early stages of disaster we need to work with nonprofits who have the capacity to distribute.
Unsolicited giving can
result in up to 60%
of donated goods going
to landfills or otherwise going to waste
