JFS is one of 67 Massachusetts faith based and community organizations awarded funds through this year’s Nonprofit Security Grant Program from the Healey-Driscoll Administration. The recipients were selected through a competitive application process and approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The Nonprofit Security Grant Program is funded annually by FEMA and administered in Massachusetts by the Office of Grants and Research (OGR). The program provides funding to implement critical security enhancements at nonprofit organizations that are at high risk of a terrorist attack.  “These faith-based and community nonprofits play such a critical role in our communities, and we are proud to deliver this funding that will help them implement security measures to keep their residents safe and ensure peace of mind,” said Governor Maura Healey. “We’re grateful to the Biden-Harris Administration for making this funding available to ensure these organizations can continue to serve those who depend on them, without fear or interruption.”
