Short Description:
Program Coordinator for Public Assistance Program. Program is a
FEMA program.
Complete Description:
Public Assistance (PA) Program Officer/Coordinator Job
Description
The mission of Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) Public
Assistance (PA) Grant Program is to provide assistance to state,
tribal and local governments, and private non-profit organizations
so that communities can quickly respond to and recover from
man-made or natural disasters or emergencies declared by the
President of the United States. Through the PA Program, FEMA
provides supplemental Federal disaster grant assistance to account
for various disaster recovery activities including debris removal,
emergency protective measures, and the repair, replacement, or
restoration of disaster-damaged, publicly owned/eligible private
non-profit facilities.
The PA Program also encourages the protection of these damaged
facilities from future events by providing assistance for hazard
mitigation measures during the recovery process. Reimbursements
through the PA Program are subject to a cost share; 75 percent of
eligible costs are reimbursed, and the remaining 25 percent is to
be covered by the applicant, though FEMA may choose to issue 100%
funding to applicants for eligible costs during specific disaster
events.
After a Presidential Disaster is declared, the program coordinator
will spend a considerable amount of time working in the FEMA Grants
Portal system, which is a website where all PA grants are tracked
and administered. This is a system that is used by the state, FEMA,
and local applicants alike. Below is a list of common tasks
associated with this system:
