National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program Individual State Earthquake Assistance

​​The National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program (NEHRP) Individual State Earthquake Assistance (ISEA) grant program makes funds available to states and U.S. territories to increase and enhance the effective implementation of earthquake risk reduction at the state and local level. FEMA recognizes that earthquakes cannot be prevented, but their impacts on life, property, and the economy can be managed. The ISEA grant program prioritizes reducing the risks to life and property from future earthquakes in the U.S. through the establishment and maintenance of an effective earthquake hazards reduction program. All activities funded by the ISEA grant program must be consistent with the National Earthquake Hazard Reduction Program (NEHRP) vision, mission, and strategic goals.​
