Expands the New Jersey Nonprofit Security Grant Program to increase grant amounts and include new categories of funding.

The bill expands the "New Jersey Nonprofit Security Grant Program" (NJNSGP) to increase the maximum grant amounts and include new categories of funding. The NJNSGP, coordinated by the Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness (OHSP), provides grants to eligible nonprofit organizations at greatest risk of attack. The bill increases the maximum grant from $10,000 to $50,000 per approved application for personnel or security-related training or planning, and from $50,000 to $150,000 for target-hardening equipment.
