Today, Congresswoman Laura Gillen (D-NY-04) announced that eleven faith-based institutions in New York’s Fourth Congressional District have been awarded a total of more than $2 million in federal funding through the Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) to safeguard houses of worship and community spaces from security threats. Each institution will receive nearly $200,000 for safety enhancements, such as physical barriers, security cameras and contracted security personnel.

This funding, provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency through its Nonprofit Security Grant Program, is being allocated to New York through two separate awards - $28.4 million for organizations within the New York City Metro Area and $3.6 million for organizations throughout the rest of the state.
Assessments
The verified passage shows that eleven faith-based institutions in NY-04 were awarded more than $2 million in federal NSGP security funding, matching the general subject of the promise. However, the verified passage only says Gillen announced the awards; it does not verify that she wrote, sponsored, secured, or materially advanced the funding, nor does it document post-promise work with houses of worship. Because delivery or partial credit requires material candidate contribution supported by verified evidence, the outcome remains unresolved.
