Client Successes

Loudoun County, VA

In 2018, Loudoun County, VA is the recipient of a $1,486,000 grant award through FEMA’s FY2017 Assistance to Firefighter Grant Program. The grant will cover both personnel costs and the contracting costs associated with hosting workshops that addresses physical fitness, nutrition, behavioral health/stress management, mental performance, injury prevention, and sleep management, each taught by experts in their field. Grant will also cover individual movement screenings. TFG provided feedback and edits to the County’s application and drafted Congressional support letters.

City of Woodland, CA

The City of Woodland Police Department received a $375,000 award from the Community Oriented Policing Services Hiring Program after unsuccessfully applying for the program twice. With the strategic planning and grant review services offered by TFG, the Department successfully secured grant funds to hire three new patrol officers. These officers will be assigned to the Patrol Division during times of peak calls to better serve the community.

High Point, NC

The High Point Police Department (HPPD) instituted a unique policing method called "focused deterrence" that engages repeat violent offenders and offers them an opportunity and assistance to make certain lifestyle/behavioral changes or face long-term incarceration. The "High Point Model" has won many prestigious awards and has been referred to in the President's Department of Justice (DOJ) budget as a national model of policing. TFG worked with HPPD to apply focused deterrence to domestic violence offenders and has helped facilitate a dialogue between HPPD and DOJ's Office of Violence Against Women.

Introducing the Infrastructure Funding Bulletin Podcast


This edition of the Infrastructure Funding Bulletin provides information about recent federal infrastructure developments that may impact local and regional planning efforts, and is designed to help local governments, special districts, utilities, associations, and nonprofits better understand new opportunities and administrative changes affecting infrastructure funding and policy.

In this episode, we explore:

Great Lakes Sediment and Nutrient Reduction Program (GLSNRP) – A focused funding opportunity aimed at improving water quality through conservation practices and watershed-based projects.

Updates to NEPA Regulations – A summary of recent administrative changes to federal environmental review processes, and what those changes may mean for permitting across agencies.

FEMA’s BRIC Program Announcement – An overview of FEMA’s decision to cancel FY2024 BRIC funding and the potential implications for resilience and hazard mitigation planning.

TFG’s goal is to provide fact-based insights to support informed decision-making. With decades of experience helping communities navigate federal funding and policy, we offer this deep dive as an additional resource to help you stay current and proactive.
