Company Overview

Established in 2009, Emergency Management & Public Health Partners is a fully remote boutique consulting group specializing in disaster response, emergency management, and comprehensive grants support. We provide swift, structured support during emergencies, including rapid grant identification, expedited proposal development, and implementation oversight to ensure timely access to critical funding and resources.

We offer a wide range of grant expertise and grant management services to organizations and businesses of any size. We utilize best in class cloud-based grants management software solutions to collaboratively build out, iterate and manage your system.

Additionally, we specialize in assisting National Associations, not-for-profits, and government customers who do not have a full-time grants management staff, offering our customers full access to local, state, federal and private grant opportunities, at a fraction of the cost of managing this technical work in-house. For organizations and businesses that do have full-time grants management employees, we can provide consultation and/or workload assistance on an as-needed basis.

Our small but mighty team allows us to offer high quality professional services with the personal touch you can only get with a boutique firm.
