The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has released guidance to assist state, local, tribal and territorial organizations looking to apply for federal funding to invest in public safety communications projects.
The document, titled “SAFECOM Guidance on Emergency Communications Grants,” outlines details on technical standards, terms and conditions and eligible activities for federal emergency communications grants, CISA said Friday.
Developed in partnership with SAFECOM and the National Council of Statewide Interoperability Coordinators, the document aims to help emergency service organizations identify available funding sources and plan programs to enhance public safety communications systems in their communities.
SAFECOM is a communications program managed by CISA to provide research, development, test and evaluation resources to address interoperable communications-related issues.
