State Public Assistance Program
Arkansas Department of Public Safety, Arkansas Division of Emergency Management · State program
State share capped at 35% of eligible costs
Arkansas operates a State Public Assistance Program that helps eligible local and state government applicants after disasters. It is not a homeowner program, so it does not appear to fit homeowner hardening needs, but it is the only clearly documented state disaster grant on the official page.
Program details
How it works
The Arkansas Division of Emergency Management administers the State Public Assistance Program under state law and operating procedures. The program fills the gap between local recovery efforts and federal disaster assistance after a disaster.
What the money covers
The page says eligible assistance includes debris removal, emergency protective measures, and permanent restoration of infrastructure.
Amounts and matching
The state share cannot be more than 35 percent of eligible costs.
Eligibility note
The program is made available to eligible applicants and facilities located in a designated damage area when the situation has clearly exceeded the capability of local government.
Important note
This is a public-assistance program for local governments and state governments, not for homeowners.
