State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) The State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) is a core assistance program that provides funding to support the implementation of risk-driven, capabilities-based State Homeland Security Strategies to address capability targets.
</p><p>The goal of SHSP is to support statewide and state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) governments in building, enhancing, and sustaining the capabilities needed to prevent, prepare for, protect against, and respond to acts of terrorism.
SHSP funding is intended to help SLTT agencies address capability gaps identified through the THIRA/SPR process, as well as prioritize resources toward high-impact security focus areas, known as NPAs. </p><p><br></p><p>The following are the five priority areas for FY 2025, along with the minimum corresponding percentage of funds that each recipient will be required to allocate.
Recipients must allocate at least 30% of their SHSP funds to the five NPAs:</p><ul><li>Enhancing the protection of soft targets and crowded places (This includes faith-based organizations and election sites) - No minimum percent</li><li>Supporting Homeland Security Task Forces and fusion centers - <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">No minimum percent</span></li><li>Enhancing and integrating cybersecurity resiliency - <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">No minimum percent</span></li><li>Enhancing election security - At least 3%</li><li>Border Crisis Response and Enforcement Support - At least 10%</li></ul><p>DHS/FEMA expects that national priorities will continue to be included in future years, evolving as threats change and capability gaps are addressed.
