Overview

NOTE: Nonprofit organizations may not apply to FEMA directly. See page 8 of the PDF. Idaho Office of Emergency Management The Idaho Office of Emergency Management is part of the Idaho Military Division. IOEM is the state’s emergency management agency tasked by Idaho code with providing assistance to the 44 counties and four Tribes in managing man-made and natural disasters in the state. Key to the agency’s role is developing and updating the state’s Emergency Operations Plan. This detailed all-hazards plan establishes a framework for managing disasters in Idaho, and develops mechanisms for state support to state, local, and tribal emergency managers. Non-Profit Security Grant Program (NSGP) (Idaho) The Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) provides funding support for target hardening and other physical security enhancements and activities to nonprofit organizations that are at high risk of terrorist attack. The intent is to integrate nonprofit preparedness activities with broader state and local preparedness efforts. It is also designed to promote coordination and collaboration in emergency preparedness activities among public and private community representatives, as well as state and local government agencies. The NGSP, via State Administrative Agencies (SAA), provides funds to nonprofit organizations that are at high risk of terrorist or other extremist attack to meet the following three objectives throughout the period of performance: Enhance equipment and conduct security-related activities to improve the security posture of nonprofit organizations that are at high risk of a terrorist or other extremist attack. Address and close capability gaps that are identified in individual nonprofit organization Vulnerability Assessments via funding spent on Planning, Equipment, and Training and Exercises that aim to enhance the protection of soft targets and crowded places. Strengthen relationships across non-profit organization, state, local, and territorial homeland security agencies for a whole community approach to preparedness. Given the evolving threat landscape, it is incumbent upon DHS/FEMA to continuously evaluate the national risk profile and set priorities that help ensure appropriate allocation of scarce security dollars. In assessing the national risk profile, the following National Priority Areas (NPAs) shape current and future guidance: Enhancing the protection of soft targets/crowded places. Supporting Homeland Security Task Forces and Fusion Centers Enhancing Cybersecurity Enhancing Election Security Supporting Border Crisis Response and Enforcement Likewise, there are several enduring security needs that crosscut the homeland security enterprise. The following are second-tier priorities that help recipients implement a comprehensive approach to securing communities: Effective planning; Training and awareness campaigns; and Exercises Award Description Up to $2,100,000 will be available for Idaho applicants in 2025. Individual awards may be up to $200,000. Cost sharing/matching is not required.
