H.R. 7382 – Nonprofit Security Grant Program Transparency Act

AI-Generated Summary

Updated February 10, 2026 at 6:11 AM UTC

The Nonprofit Security Grant Program Transparency Act amends the Homeland Security Act to make the Department of Homeland Security’s grant program for nonprofit organizations more open. It forces the agency to provide detailed information about grant applications, awards, and spending to congressional committees, helping lawmakers and the public see how funds are distributed across states and high‑risk urban areas.

Key Provisions

Requires the DHS Administrator to submit a pre‑grant report to the House and Senate Homeland Security committees at least seven days before any grant(s) are awarded in a fiscal year. The report must list how many applications were received, how many were submitted to the Administrator, the number and amount of grants to be awarded, and for each recipient provide its name, address, whether it’s in a high‑risk urban area, and the grant amount.
Requires an annual report, due within 90 days after the fiscal year ends, that details for each state the number of applications, submissions to the Administrator, grants made, total grant amounts (including amounts retained under the program), how each recipient spent its grant, and aggregate data for high‑risk urban areas. The report also must describe the program office’s operations, staffing, and efforts related to these activities.
