Indiana Department of Homeland Security will select 25 applicants randomly to receive a rebate for a safe room
The Residential Safe Room Program application period is now open.
Indiana Department of Homeland Security will select 25 applicants randomly to receive a rebate for a safe room to be installed in their Indiana residence. If approved, applicants will be reimbursed for 75% ($5,000 maximum)of their safe room installation costs.
Applications are due July 31, using the safe room application form.
The IDHS Residential Safe Room Program was developed in 2015 by the IDHS Hazard Mitigation Assistance Program to provide a rebate for the installation of safe rooms for Indiana residences.
Indiana provides this rebate program through the FEMA Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) Grant Program. Therefore, IDHS must comply with all federal grant regulations for each rebate recipient.
Interested individuals can sign up for Safe Room program updates to be notified of program news.
IDHS and FEMA must review each application and associated documentation submitted to ensure guidelines are met for each application entered in the lottery.
