Date Issued: November 30, 2022 02:00 pm ET View as PDF:  National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin - November 30, 2022 02:00 pm (pdf, 2 pages, 237.08 KB) Summary of Terrorism Threat to the United States The United States remains in a heightened threat environment. Lone offenders and small groups motivated by a range of ideological beliefs and/or personal grievances continue to pose a persistent and lethal threat to the Homeland.  Domestic actors and foreign terrorist organizations continue to maintain a visible presence online in attempts to motivate supporters to conduct attacks in the Homeland.  Threat actors have recently mobilized to violence, citing factors such as reactions to current events and adherence to violent extremist ideologies. In the coming months, threat actors could exploit several upcoming events to justify or commit acts of violence, including certifications related to the midterm elections, the holiday season and associated large gatherings, the marking of two years since the breach of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, and potential sociopolitical developments connected to ideological beliefs or personal hostility. Targets of potential violence include public gatherings, faith-based institutions, the LGBTQI+ community, schools, racial and religious minorities, government facilities and personnel, U.S. critical infrastructure, the media, and perceived ideological opponents. You can view the National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin - November 30, 2022 | Homeland Security (dhs.gov) which includes resources to stay safe and examples of  how DHS is working with partners across every level of government, in the private sector, and in local communities to keep Americans safe. Join Us to Learn How to Prepare for the Fiscal Year 2023 Nonprofit Security Grant Program   INFORMATIONAL OUTREACH INVITATION Nonprofit Security Grant Program - Webinar Preparing for the Fiscal Year 2023 Nonprofit Security Grant Program The Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) Grant Programs Directorate, the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and the DHS Center for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, jointly invite all interested 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations to a Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) Informational Webinar virtual event to provide a look-back on the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 NSGP, and look-ahead for the prospective FY 2023 NSGP. The NSGP provides funding for physical and cyber security enhancements and other security-related activities to nonprofit organizations that are at high risk of a terrorist attack. In addition, the NSGP seeks to integrate nonprofit preparedness activities with broader state and local preparedness efforts. FEMA will host several NSGP virtual webinars to provide lessons learned from the FY 2022 NSGP cycle and, most importantly, share valuable information on what nonprofits should consider now in preparation for the FY 2023 NSGP application submission cycle. Each webinar will contain similar content including an opportunity for nonprofits to provide a platform to share NSGP investment accomplishments, feedback, and ask questions.
