Nonprofit Security Grant Program

The Non-Profit Security Grant (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 prevention and preparedness activities with broader state and local 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.

Please refer to the documents on the right to help in gathering information that will be needed to complete an application.
