Non-Governmental Organizations

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) engages with non-governmental organizations (NGO) to share reliable information about DHS programs and policies.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Non-governmental Organizations (NGO) team developed the following comprehensive resource guides, leveraging resources across the federal government to equip NGO stakeholders, community leaders and members, and organizations serving a variety of communities with the necessary tools and information to enhance their security posture while ensuring the safety and resilience of their operations and communities. Within the Guide are cybersecurity, physical security, and targeted violence prevention resources as well as information on grant opportunities. 

The NGO Resource Guide contains a consolidated list of resources while the Faith-Based, Academic and Youth-Serving, and LGBTQI+ Communities include specific security considerations for that community.
