SLCGP Moving Forward:

All projects from FFY2022 were approved by FEMA and CISA for continuation with increased funding levels in New Hampshire’s FFY2023 SLCGP Application. Additionally, the Municipal Cyber Defense Program (MCDP) was added as a project to increase funding levels and continue the real outcomes at the local level for cities, towns, K12s and other eligible entities. The information was reviewed at the G&C Breakfast meeting on 1/31/2024.

The Department of Safety was then granted accept and expend of this Grant Funding (Item 121) and will bring a request to transfer the dollars to DoIT. DoIT will bring an Accept and Expend request to the next G&C meeting and if approved, the SLCGP will expeditiously begin procurement of services for municipal organizations and K12s across the State.
