The funded activities under this award include facility hardening measures such as installation of surveillance systems, access control systems, security lighting, fencing, shatter-resistant glass, and engagement of contracted security personnel. The program also addresses cybersecurity enhancements and overall security infrastructure improvements for vulnerable nonprofit entities. Through its sub-award structure, the Oklahoma Office of Homeland Security will coordinate the distribution of federal funding to eligible nonprofit organizations to strengthen their capacity to prevent, protect against, and respond to potential security threats and attacks.
