Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC)

Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) is a Hazard Mitigation Assistance grant program that makes federal funds available to states and local governments for hazard mitigation activities. BRIC empowers states and local governments to make smart investments in resilient infrastructure. By supporting pre-disaster and hazard mitigation projects – such as school safe rooms, utility hardening, relocating critical facilities out of flood areas, and securing pump stations – BRIC aims to save lives, protect property, and reduce the cost of future disaster response and recovery.
