About this file

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This document appears to be a scoring tool for evaluating investment justification submissions in response to the Fiscal Year 2024 Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) federal grant opportunity.

The scoring tool outlines 13 questions that reviewers should use to assess each investment justification, with scoring criteria ranging from 0 to 5 points per question. The questions cover topics such as the applicant's organization details, threats and vulnerabilities, proposed facility hardening activities, project milestones, management team, and expected outcomes. The total score for each investment justification will be calculated automatically. This score should then be recorded in a separate prioritization tracker.

The related federal grant opportunity, the FY 2024 NSGP, provides funding to nonprofit organizations for physical security enhancements and other security-related activities to protect against terrorist or extremist attacks. The NSGP is one of three DHS/FEMA grant programs focused on enhancing the ability of state, local, tribal, and territorial entities, as well as nonprofits, to prevent, protect against, prepare for, and respond to such threats. Applicants can submit applications through the FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO) system.
