NOFOs & Documents
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 will publish a funding notice in late October for the $210 million remaining in FY 2024 Nonprofit Security Grant Program Supplemental funding, appropriated by the National Security Supplemental (Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024). Key program enhancements will include expanding eligibility to include consortia of nonprofit organizations as eligible subrecipients. The application period will be open for 90 days after publication.
