gov The Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) plays an important role in the implementation of the National Preparedness System (NPS) by supporting the development and sustainment of core capabilities. Core capabilities are essential for the execution of each of the five mission areas outlined in the National Preparedness Goal.

The NSGP provides funding support for statutorily eligible costs to include target hardening and other physical security enhancements and activities to nonprofit organizations that are at high risk of terrorist attack. The program seeks 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.

The NSGP supplements one of three grant programs that support DHS/FEMA’s focus on enhancing the ability of state, local, tribal, and territorial governments, as well as nonprofits, to prevent, protect against, prepare for, and respond to terrorist or other extremist attacks.

These grant programs are part of a comprehensive set of measures authorized by Congress and implemented by DHS to help strengthen the nation’s communities against potential terrorist or other extremist attacks. NSGP applicants include the State Administrative Agencies (SAA) and subapplicants include eligible nonprofit organizations.

DHS is focused on building a national culture of preparedness and protecting against terrorist and other threats to our national security. The threats to our Nation have evolved during the past two decades. We now face continuous cyber threats by sophisticated actors, threats to soft targets and crowded places, and threats from domestic violent extremists, who represent one of the most persistent threats to the nation today.

Therefore, DHS/FEMA has identified one national priority area related to some of the most serious threats that recipients should address with their NSGP funds: enhancing the protection of soft targets/crowded places. DHS is also focused on forging partnerships to strengthen information sharing and collaboration among federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement.

There are no requirements for information sharing between nonprofit organizations and law enforcement; however, the NSGP seeks to bring nonprofit organizations into broader state and local preparedness efforts by removing barriers to communication and being more inclusive.

DHS/FEMA encourages information sharing, while the goal of the NSGP is centered on improving and increasing a nonprofit organization’s physical/cyber security and facility/target hardening to enhance the protection of soft targets/crowded places. All NSGP activities must be linked to enhancing the security and safety at the physical site of the nonprofit organization.
