Migrant Crisis · City and County of Denver
Emergency Food and Shelter Program & Shelter and Services Program
People served since December 2022
FEMA Shelter and Services Program funds received
Since late 2022, Denver has seen a significant influx of migrants arriving from the southern border. Since December 2022 the City has provided shelter, food, supplies and transportation to over 15,000 people, including adults with dependents.
FEMA created the Shelter and Services Program (SSP) to fund local governments and non-profits facing these arrivals. Denver has received about $12 million.
BASE Tactical manages every part of the grant: application preparation, drawdown of federal dollars, reimbursement requests, financial reporting and payment progress reports. We also keep the City in compliance with Uniform Guidance so it keeps every dollar awarded.
