Lamont McClure and the Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) announce that the County of Northampton will accept applications for 2022 Public Safety Grants beginning on August 1st through September 9, 2022.

Public Safety Grants are available to Northampton County’s municipal and volunteer Police, Fire and Emergency Medical Service (EMS) organizations. The grants can be used for capital improvements, vehicle purchase, equipment purchase and training. Eligible organizations can apply for up to $20,000 per application or project.

Approvals are scheduled to be announced in November 2022.

“Fire departments and EMS organizations are critical to protecting the lives and the property of Northampton County residents,” says Lamont McClure. “We want to be as supportive of our emergency responders as possible especially during these trying times.”
