Fiscal Year 2024 & 2025 Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC)

The Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) grant program makes federal funds available to states, U.S. territories, federally recognized tribal governments, and local governments for hazard mitigation activities. The program aims to shift the focus of federal investments away from reactive post-disaster spending towards proactive infrastructure-focused hazard mitigation. Key aspects of the program include: • Upgrading and modernizing the nation’s infrastructure against the growing risks to communities • Promoting resilience with respect to natural hazards • Investing in infrastructure and construction projects that deliver immediate, measurable risk reduction to communities vulnerable to natural hazards • Emphasizing the adoption and enforcement of modern building codes • Limiting capability- and capacity-building activities to those directly tied to infrastructure resilience
