BOSTON – Today, the Healey-Driscoll Administration announced $3 million in state nonprofit security grant funding for 47 organizations at increased risk of hate crimes or terror attacks.

In addition to the annual Commonwealth Nonprofit Security Grant Program (CNSGP), the Administration awarded funds as part of a new pilot grant program focused on assisting with security personnel costs. Together, the complementary programs provide needed funding for on-premises security measures. 

“Today’s recipient organizations contribute immeasurably to the life of our Commonwealth as nonprofits fulfilling unique missions,” said Governor Maura Healey. “The security enhancements made possible by this funding ensure their continued preparedness against potential threats. Our Administration remains committed to ensuring the safety of those they service as centers of community, art and culture, learning, and social services.”
