This State program consists of two grant funding opportunities as described here:
- NJ NSGP – Security Personnel (NJ NSGP-SP): This program is limited to the hiring of federal, State, county, or municipal active law enforcement officers appointed pursuant to P.L.1985 or security officers registered pursuant to P.L.2004, c.134 for the applicant’s facility. The use of other personnel for security purposes that do not fit the above description is ineligible under this program. This funding may not be used to supplant expenses for an organization’s current security personnel but may be used for additional security personnel needs based on identified risk. Under special conditions, the use of security personnel may be used for off-site events within the geographic boundaries of the State of New Jersey.
- NJ NSGP – Target Hardening Equipment (NJ NSGP-THE): This program is limited to the purchase and installation of security equipment on property owned or leased by the nonprofit organization. A complete list of authorized equipment is provided below under resources.
Note: Eligible nonprofit organizations may apply annually for both the NJ NSGP-SP and NJ NSGP-THE programs. However, each nonprofit organization may only be awarded funding for one State program per fiscal year. Additionally, NJOHSP shall assign a preference for eligible applicants that have not received either a federal or State security grant in the last two grant cycles for target hardening equipment measures. Management/administration, training, exercise, and planning expenses are not allowable for either of these NJ NSGP programs.
