GOVERNOR HOCHUL ANNOUNCES NEARLY $25 MILLION AVAILABLE TO STRENGTHEN SECURITY AT NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS

Earlier today at the Museum of Jewish Heritage in Battery Park City, Kathy Hochul announced the availability of an additional $25 million to help nonprofit organizations improve the security of their facilities to better protect those at risk of hate crimes or attacks because of their ideology, beliefs, or mission. Available to those organizations that have not previously received state funding for this purpose, the allocation builds on nearly $43 million awarded today to 362 nonprofit organizations to help boost security infrastructure and enhance preparedness against potential hate crime attacks.
