Description
The Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) supports target hardening and other physical security enhancements for nonprofit organizations. The Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) administers the program in Florida through its Preparedness Bureau. NSGP also promotes emergency preparedness coordination among nonprofits, public and private community representatives, and state and local government agencies.
The National Security Supplemental (NSGP-NSS) funds organizations at risk of terrorist or other extremist attacks. Supported work includes facility security equipment, cybersecurity enhancements, security planning, training, exercises, and contracted security personnel. All activities must enhance security and safety at the nonprofit’s physical site and address identified vulnerabilities. Protecting soft targets and crowded places is the principal priority, complemented by effective planning, training and awareness, and exercises.
