The Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) provides funding support for target hardening and other physical security enhancements and activities to nonprofit organizations that are at high risk of terrorist attack. The intent is to integrate nonprofit preparedness activities with broader state and local preparedness efforts. It is also designed to promote coordination and collaboration in emergency preparedness activities among public and private community representatives, as well as state and local government agencies.
FEMA published a funding notice on Oct. 28, 2024 for the $210 million remaining appropriated by the National Security Supplemental (Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024). This opportunity is called the Nonprofit Security Grant Program National Security Supplemental (NSGP-NSS). Key program enhancements include expanding eligibility to include consortia of nonprofit organizations as eligible subrecipients. The application deadline for State Administrative Agencies (SAAs) is Jan, 24, 2025. The application deadline for subapplicants is determined by your SAA. Contact your SAA for details on the application deadline. More information can be found in the NSGP-NSS documents, available here.
