A 2485 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Concerns the "New Jersey Nonprofit Security Grant Program."

This bill amends New Jersey's Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NJNSGP) to increase funding limits and adjust grant administration. It raises the maximum annual grant for security personnel from $10,000 to $25,000 per application (with a $75,000 yearly cap per organization) and for security equipment from $50,000 to $100,000. The bill eliminates restrictions preventing organizations from receiving both personnel and equipment grants in the same year, and increases the required annual funding request from $2 million to $14 million. It also establishes specific funding allocations: 55% for personnel grants, 36% for equipment, 4% for outreach, and 5% for administrative costs. The program directly supports nonprofit organizations at high risk of violence, enabling them to hire security staff or purchase protective equipment within New Jersey.
