Description:

Does this sound like your agency?

  • Your agency lacks funds for vital equipment or training.
  • You applied for grants in the past, but just can’t seem to get your application into the winner’s circle.
  • Times are tight and your budget is shrinking, but grants seem so intimidating, you’ll never figure out how to get that crucial additional funding for your department.
  • Need help finding grants?

You’re not the only one. Fire Departments, Law Enforcement Agencies, and other Emergency Services Agencies nationwide have felt the sting of the budget ax. Competition for grant funding awards is fierce. This training provides a competitive edge!

Don’t settle for another “Dear John” rejection notice. What did our clients do to avoid those rejection notices?

They got First Responder Grants training.

“We have been awarded $410,199, and we have about $4,000 invested in training and assistance through you. That’s over $100,000 for every $1,000 invested. Thank you.”

— Undersheriff Mickey Gruber, Brown County Sheriff, Kansas

On April 26th and 27th, 2025 the Stratford Emergency Medical Services, in Stratford, Connecticut will host a 2-day specialized class for all Public Safety / First Responder Agencies on developing, writing, and applying for grant programs. The class will be presented by staff from First Responder Grants, (www.firstrespondergrants.com ) at Stratford Emergency Medical Training & Education Center 2712 Main Street, Stratford, Connecticut 06615.  Participants will learn the skills needed to properly research, develop and apply to grant funding streams specific to Public Safety, Emergency Management and Homeland Defense.

The training is specifically directed at employees of First Responder and Public Safety Agencies of Police/Fire/EMS and Emergency Management or local government agencies seeking grant funding from Federal/State/Local grant funding sources.

  • In this economy, the competition for grant dollars will be extremely high.
  • First Responder Grants Training gives you the competitive edge needed to win grants for your agency!

“Our department is very small and gets very little support from local government. Years ago, my department sent me to a First Responder Grants seminar in Philadelphia. It was the best money our department has ever spent. I would estimate in the last 3 years we are in the $750,000-$1,000,000-dollar club for grants. I would highly recommend going to this seminar.”

— Lieutenant Nick Cook, Bendersville Community Fire Co, Pennsylvania
