The Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) turns 20 this year and with this milestone comes a new round of potential funding for fire departments. How has the program changed over the past two decades, and how do these changes inform applications for the fall cycle?

Join Lexipol’s FireGrantsHelp team to take a brief look back at how AFG started, and dive into the program’s current status and explore what you need to know for submitting a funding request. 

You’ll Learn:

  • Trends in FY20 AFG awards and what they mean for future applications.
  • Actions your department should take now—before the grant opens—to position yourself for success in the fall. 
  • Project area pitfalls that can doom an application and how to avoid them.
