# Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention Grant Program ## The DHS TVTP Grant Program **Saves Lives — and Money** The Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention (TVTP) Grant Program provides funding for state, local, tribal, and territorial governments; nonprofits; and institutions of higher education to establish or enhance capabilities to prevent targeted violence and terrorism.
The Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships (CP3) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) administer the program. It is the only federal grant program solely dedicated to helping local communities develop and strengthen their capabilities in this area.
Since 2020, the TVTP Grant Program has provided nearly $90 million across five funding cycles via 178 awards, training 38,250 people, and reaching 28,308,418 people across 41 states and the District of Columbia. CP3 anticipates that the Fiscal Year 2025 (FY25) Application Guidance will be published in Spring 2025. Subject to funding availability, we expect to issue a Notice of Funding Opportunity shortly thereafter.
The TVTP Grant Program provides financial assistance to develop sustainable, multidisciplinary prevention capabilities in local communities, pilot innovative prevention approaches, and identify prevention best practices that can be replicated in communities across the country.
TVTP Grantees leverage an approach informed by public health research, by bringing together mental health providers, educators, faith leaders, public health and safety officials, social services, nonprofits, and others in communities across the country to help people who are on a pathway to violence before harm occurs. TVTP grantees have successfully implemented prevention projects since FY20.
In addition to developing sustainable prevention capabilities, the TVTP Grant Program's goals include sharing promising practices and lessons learned with prevention providers around the country. Prevention providers are encouraged to review our TVTP Grantee Results to develop or enhance their own programming.
### Privacy, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties CP3 ensures adequate protections for individuals’ privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties, as required under DHS legal authorities and DHS policy, as part of its mission and operations.
Preventing targeted violence and terrorism requires the trust and voluntary involvement of all elements of society to be successful, and CP3 works to ensure that its programs include fundamental constitutional and legal protections. CP3 equips its partners to prevent targeted violence or terrorism in their own communities.
As such, CP3 does not broadly collect information or participate in law enforcement investigations, intelligence collection, or other direct or indirect disruption of active threats. Additionally, CP3 does not engage in censorship or encourage or facilitate any censorship by its grant recipients.
Government censorship of viewpoints not only infringes on individuals’ constitutional rights, but it is also an ineffective tactic to prevent targeted violence and terrorism. CP3 encourages the public to review section IV (pp. 10-16) of the CP3 Report to Congress for more detailed information on the privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties protections built into the TVTP Grant Program.

On June 15, FEMA opened simultaneous application windows for the FY 2026 Emergency Management Performance Grant ($337 million) and the FY 2026 Emergency Operations Center Grant ($83 million). Both close July 15. The combined $420 million pool funds personnel, training, equipment, planning, and EOC construction across state, local, tribal, and territorial governments. The single-month window is unusually tight for two flagship preparedness programs that have historically opened in late winter. Here is the strategic read on activity eligibility, the EMPG-versus-EOC split, the formula versus competitive mechanics, and how applicants should sequence work in a 30-day cycle.

The combined funding is the largest single-event homeland security grant package since the post-9/11 Urban Area Security Initiative was created. The eligibility math, the host-city versus non-host-city distinction, and why even jurisdictions that will never host a match should be writing applications now.
Read articleFEMA's Nonprofit Security Grant Program funds physical security for nonprofits at high risk of terrorist attack — up to $150,000 per site for target hardening.

Here is how the FY2026 cycle is structured and how to write a fundable application.
