FEMA Nonprofit Security Grants Available
The Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) gives faith-based and nonprofit organizations, including churches, an opportunity to apply for resources to help them prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from terrorist attacks.
There have been PCUSA congregations (out of hundreds of applicants) that have successfully secured NSGP funds to make their facilities more secure.
Here are several examples of projects the NSGP funds:
- Surveillance equipment
- Physical protective measures such as fences, blast-proof windows, and concrete barriers
- Active Shooter Training
- Security Training for employees, or members/congregation
We urge you and your congregations to attend one of upcoming webinars hosted by FEMA and its Center for Faith-based & Neighborhood Partnerships. (Each webinar will present the same content.) The webinars will introduce the grant program and the application process.
