Nonprofit security grant program

This federal Project Grant award of $14,475,442 was provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) under the Nonprofit Security Grant Program (CFDA 97.008). The program aims to support physical security enhancements and protective measures for nonprofit organizations at high risk of terrorist or extremist attacks.

Through this grant, the State of Michigan Emergency Management and Homeland Security Division, the prime recipient, is distributing sub-awards to various nonprofit organizations across Michigan. These sub-awards are funding critical security improvements such as surveillance systems, access controls, fencing, lighting, and contracted security personnel. The goal is to mitigate risks and strengthen the security preparedness of vulnerable nonprofit entities, including religious institutions, schools, community centers, and healthcare facilities. The sub-awards range from $105,095 to $46,042,432 and span a 36-month performance period from September 1, 2024, to August 31, 2027.
